I received my medical degree from the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center in Denver. I completed a fellowship in adolescent medicine and an internship there as well. Before joining Kaiser Permanente in 1991, I served on the clinical faculty at Saint Joseph Hospital Family Practice Clinic. I also served as a physician with Regis College, Metropolitan State College and the Denver Department of Health and Hospitals. I am board certified in family medicine and am now pursuing a master's degree in public health.

About my practice

I believe in patient education and a preventive approach to all of our health care needs. I hope members feel they can talk to me about any of their problems or concerns.

How I thrive

When not busy with my patients or studying for school, family activities fill most of my leisure time.
