My Biography

I was born in New York City and grew up in Atlanta, Georgia. I attended Yale University from which I graduated Magna cum Laude with distinction in my major of American studies. I became interested in pursuing a medical career after an unexpected encounter with the front end of a Chevy on a sidewalk in Manhattan. I then pursued pre-medical studies at Bryn Mawr College and earned my medical degree from Stanford University. I completed my internship and residency in pediatrics at Stanford University Medical Center.

I am a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics (FAAP). Before joining The Permanente Medical Group in May of 1997, I worked in private practice in Los Altos, California; Silver Spring, Maryland; and Chevy Chase, Maryland.

I am married and have two children. I am an avid reader and enjoy regular exercise, especially swimming, pilates, and skiing. I also appeared as an extra in the television series "ER".

If you think you have a MEDICAL OR PSYCHIATRIC EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY or go to the nearest hospital. DO NOT attempt to access emergency care through this web site. An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
