About Me

I was born in Eugene, Oregon and raised in the East Bay Area. I received my undergraduate degree from St. Mary’s College in 1999. I then earned my California State Teaching Credential from Chapman University in 2001. After a couple years of teaching, I continued my graduate education at Santa Clara University, graduating with a Masters in Counseling Psychology in 2006. I am now licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist.

My specialty areas include marriage and family therapy, dual diagnosis, as well as chemical dependency. Before coming to work at Kaiser, I worked as a 6th grade teacher for three years in South San Jose and later as a counselor for the Salvation Army from 2005 to 2006. I have been with Kaiser Permanente since October of 2006. Currently I work as an MFT in Kaiser’s Chemical Dependency Recovery Program (CDRP) in Cupertino, California.

On a personal note, I am married to my beautiful wife, Cassie. When I’m not working, I enjoy hiking, travel, baseball, reading, lifelong learning, meditation and mindfulness. I was formerly a licensed skydiver with the United States Parachute Association. I completed 264 skydives before I stopped jumping in 2005.

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.
