About me
I grew up in Tucson, Arizona, and then went to the East coast for eight years of school. I completed my residency in Seattle and consider the Pacific Northwest my forever home. My husband and I have two young children who keep us on our toes. I went into medicine committed to learning how to treat the whole person and hoping to find answers to the questions of what makes us healthy and how to achieve better health. I am still looking more and more deeply into these questions as I continue to learn, study and teach about nutrition, lifestyle and disease.
About my practice
I chose to work here because I believe this model of care facilitates better service and outcomes for our patients. Kaiser Permanente has been a bold innovator in the changing face of health care and I am excited to work here. I see people of all ages and stages of life, from newborns to centenarians (people who are 100 years or older). What I like most about practicing family medicine is the way family doctors can look at the whole person to understand their health status.
How I thrive
When I'm not working, I'm with my family. We enjoy playing outside, reading, cooking and watching sports. We also travel and spend time together outdoors. To keep myself healthy mentally and physically, I stay active and pursue continued learning about my work and the world.

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.
