About me
I was raised in Sacramento, CA and studied International Relations at Tufts University in Boston. I attended medical school at UC Irvine. After residency at Swedish First Hill in Seattle, I spent 8 years practicing family medicine with OB at Swedish. I look forward to a lengthy career at Kaiser.
About my practice
I fell in love with family medicine in medical school and have never looked back. I feel so grateful for the opportunity to connect with my patients, support them through life events, and empower them to manage their medical conditions. My areas of interest include women's health, prenatal care, mental health, gender health, weight management, and pediatrics. I am passionate about full spectrum family practice and love my job.
How I thrive
I love running, biking, hiking, and playing at the park with my kids. My son picked up skiing and is officially better than I am at age 6 which is quite humbling. We got a puppy named Luci in 2023 and she is the best addition to the family minus her tendency to eat all the eyes out of my children's stuffed animals. I love my family and feel grateful for a wonderful community of friends in the area.

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.
