My Practice Philosophy

My philosophy of practice is to put the patient at ease and in control of managing their health. I value explaining in clear terms in ways my patients can understand. I love to teach and watch my patients develop a sense of confidence in their care and management of their illness.

My Tenure With Kaiser Permanente

I’ve been a part of Kaiser Permanente for 9 years. Eight years in Roseville and one year in southern California. I love working for Kaiser Permanente. There are so many knowledgeable clinicians with a wealth of experience who are willing to teach.

Why I Like Practicing Medicine at Kaiser Permanente

I enjoy working at Kaiser Permanente because of the team approach with physicians, nurses, and specialty areas.

On a Personal Note. . .

I enjoy traveling with my husband and children. I love to exercise and socialize with friends. I started my nursing career 23 years ago. I have worked in maternal/child health as a nurse and childbirth educator. I’ve also worked as a nurse in cardiology and intensive care. I was born and raised in southern California and lived in the Sacramento area for 9 years.
