My Biography

I’ve enjoyed working in a variety of settings, including serving as the Executive Director of a Medicare-certified home health agency and creating the rehabilitation division of a staffing registry. In 1996, when I wanted to return to patient care, I chose to work for Kaiser Permanente San Francisco because of their fully integrated system, which allows clinicians to care for their patients as part of a health care team. For several years I worked in Kaiser Permanente’s Home Health Department before transferring to Outpatient. I really value Kaiser Permanente’s emphasis on preventative medicine and wellness. I've completed a year-long training program in Australian manual therapy and was recently certified as an Orthropedic Clinical Specialist by the American Physical Therapy Association.

Additionally, I work as part of a multidisciplinary team treating Incontinence and Pelvic Pain.

Outside of work, I love hiking on Mount Tam, and I enjoy spending time with my family, adventure travel, trekking, and studying hula with a halua in San Francisco.

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.
