About Me
I grew up in San Francisco, spent a few years in Los Angeles for undergraduate training, and went to medical school at University of California, Davis. I then left California for the cold of the Midwest for residency at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan. I completed my training in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, working in Abdominal Imaging as well as Radiology Informatics. I am now happy to be back home in California with my family. I started working at Kaiser Permanente at Walnut Creek in 2005 as a general radiologist.
I am very interested in imaging informatics, which focuses on using systems (primarily technology) to improve access to and better utilize imaging information for the solving of medical problems. This is a natural outgrowth of my undergraduate training in anthropology and my experience in the computer-heavy field of radiology. I see myself as a bridge between the technical side of medicine and the people who actually have to use the technology.
I chose the Kaiser Permanente system because I knew of its work on using technology to improve patient care and its emphasis on evidence-based medicine. It is the perfect place for me to work in my two chosen areas of interest.

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.
