About me
I grew up in a small town outside of Seattle. I worked in public health and clinical research before realizing that I really wanted to work directly with patients. I like exploring the intersection between the science of medicine and individual patient relationships.
About my practice
I believe in partnering with my patients to help them achieve their health goals and pursue what is most important to them. I want to create strong relationships with my patients so that we can make informed decisions together that are aligned with their individual values. I am open to integrating complementary and alternative medicine with traditional medicine. I also try to incorporate healthy lifestyle changes related to diet and exercise into treatment plans as much as possible. I'm pleased to be part of Kaiser Permanente's integrated medical system where primary care providers and specialty colleagues work together to deliver excellent care. My main interests are in women's health, LGBT care, HIV care, adolescents and pediatrics. I like the variability in my day of seeing patients of all ages, performing procedures and teaching resident doctors. I enjoy seeing patients and families over time and developing strong relationships that lead to better health.
How I thrive
Whether I take a morning run or fit in a workout at the gym after clinic, I try to build exercise into my daily schedule. This helps me stay focused during my workday and to be more efficient. I enjoy hiking, kayaking and bicycling in the summer and skiing and snowshoeing in the winter. My husband and I like to go camping, backpacking and exploring the National Parks.

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.
