Biography

 

I grew up in Rhode Island and attended Brown University Medical School. I completed my internship at St. Mary Medical Center in Long Beach and my neurology residency and fellowship in clinical neurophysiology at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center in Torrance. Although I am still a New England sports fan, I love living in the South Bay with my family. I have always wanted to be a physician and first became interested in neurology as a teenager, when my mother was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

 

About my practice

 

I am a board-certified neurologist and proud to be able to practice medicine based on evidence and current research within Kaiser Permanente, where members are the center of care decisions.

 

I teach medical students from our Kaiser Permanente School of Medicine and neurology fellows, residents, and medical students at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center. I am also a member of the American Academy of Neurology.

 

How I thrive

 

Outside of my practice, I love music, reading, traveling with my family, cooking, and collecting fine Italian and Napa red wine. I also enjoy running, rowing, yoga, and Pilates to stay fit in body, mind, and spirit.
