About Me

I was raised in Hilo and decided to pursue a career in medicine because I wanted to help people and be of service to those in need. I have a wonderful husband and daughter.

About my practice

Internal medicine is an amazing blend of personal and professional enrichment. In addition to developing relationships with my patients, I'm eagerly challenged by a broad and constantly changing field of medicine. I believe that the patient always comes first and that prevention is the foundation for their care. I enjoy supporting and working with my patients to help them make the right decisions for their health.

In working within Hawaii Permanente Medical Group I have the support of a great leadership team along with wonderful colleagues and medical staff. I appreciate our collaboration and joint efforts to deliver the highest quality of health care possible to all members. I am the Internal Medicine Primary Care Professional Chief.

How I thrive

I have a very supportive family and enjoy spending time with them. I feel grateful for my surroundings and all the wonderful aspects of my life, including my faith. I am also interested in photography and love to read and take walks.
