About me
I grew up in Virginia. I lived in Bulgaria, South Korea, Texas, Maryland, New Jersey, and New York, before moving to Seattle. I'm married and the proud parent of 2 cats and a variety of plants. I was drawn to women's health care because I wanted to help advocate for health autonomy and patient-centered care, with a focus on shared decision-making. I love supporting families as they transition into parenthood. I chose to join Kaiser Permanente because of the outstanding clinicians and the resources that will help me grow in my midwifery practice.
About my practice
I take a holistic approach to care. I want my patients to feel heard and to know that their concerns and feelings are being taken seriously. I strive to care for my patients the way I would want to be treated. Being a trusted part of my patients' care is a privilege. I love seeing parents meet their newborns and being a part of that journey. I enjoy problem-solving in the clinic and seeing improvements in care.
How I thrive
I stay physically active by spending time as much time outside as I can. I enjoy running, hiking, snowshoeing, and camping. Eating a plant-based diet and practicing yoga and meditation helps keep me healthy. I like to make pies and tarts, and my husband is a willing taste tester. Traveling and reading are other ways I stay motivated and inspired.

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.
