My Biography

In 2001, I joined Kaiser Permanente as an Internist/Geriatrician. I am currently a member of the Hospital Medicine Department. This gives me the opportunity to help others through acute medical illnesses. As a hospitalist, I assist patients and their families understand their illness and form a care plan.

In my spare time I enjoy outdoor activities, like hiking, with my husband and son. I also like to cook and travel.

Undergraduate Education: BS in biology, University of California at Riverside
Graduate Education: MPH, University of California at Berkeley
Professional Affiliations: American College of Physicians; American Geriatric Society
Joined Kaiser Permanente: 2001

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.
