Where I practice
About me
I was raised in a military family, so we moved frequently. I attended grades 6 through 12 in Tempe, Arizona, and went to college at Arizona State University, so that area is closest to being home to me. I became interested in medicine when I was in high school. I always had a strong desire to help others in need, and I wanted to be part of something that would allow me to do that. The military and the medical profession fit both of those desires for me. I've been happily married to my high school sweetheart for over 30 years. We have 4 adult children and 1 grandchild, who arrived in 2022. I chose to join Kaiser Permanente because of their patient-centered, collaborative approach to care.
About my practice
My areas of expertise include general podiatry. I strive to treat my patients with compassion and kindness. My goal is to provide them with the proper education to understand their health concerns, and together, we can make decisions about their care. I aim to provide a relaxed, comfortable environment where my patients can feel empowered in their health care. I enjoy seeing my patients regain their mobility and get back to the activities they love.
How I thrive
I love to be out in nature. Hiking, backpacking, cycling, and being on the water are some of my favorite ways to enjoy the outdoors. We enjoy traveling to beautiful, scenic places and visiting our adult children. My love for being active in the outdoors keeps me healthy. I also like walking, canoeing, kayaking, downhill skiing, and tennis.

How we choose our network providers and hospitals
Kaiser Permanente uses the same quality, member experience, or cost-related measures to select practitioners and facilities in Marketplace Silver-tier plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business, and uses the same geographic distribution consideration to select hospitals in Marketplace plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business. The measures may include, but are not limited to, HEDIS/CAHPS performance, member/patient complaints, patient safety scores, hospital quality measures, and geographic need. Members enrolled in KFHP Marketplace plans have access to all professional, institutional and ancillary health care providers who participate in KFHP plans' contracted provider network, in accordance with the terms of the members' KFHP plan of coverage. All Kaiser Permanente Medical Group physicians and network physicians are subject to the same quality review processes and certifications.
A narrow network is defined as a tailored, tiered, or high-performance network that has 80 percent or less overlap with a health plan’s broadest network offered to a member in any type of plan offered by that health plan. Kaiser Permanente does not have a narrow network with respect to its Marketplace plans. Members enrolled in Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) Marketplace plans have access to the same provider networks as members enrolled in all other KFHP plans.
