About Me

Hello, and welcome to my Web page. I am thrilled to be working as a physician at Kaiser Permanente here in Orange County.

Biography

I grew up in Orange County and feel very blessed to have spent most of my life in Southern California. My inspiration to become a physician first started when I was doing sleep research with the geriatric population at Veteran's Affairs. I attended UCLA for my undergraduate degree and went on to earn my medical degree at Western University of Health Sciences. After graduation, I spent four freezing but wonderful years in Minnesota for my residency training.

About my practice

Being a psychiatrist is a great privilege. I enjoy guiding, informing, and listening to patients. I encourage active participation and input. I believe biological, psychological, and environmental factors must all be carefully considered when treating patients. I really enjoy the teamwork atmosphere that we cultivate here at Kaiser Permanente.

How I thrive

I stay active by playing basketball and running while listening to my favorite music. In my free time I enjoy going to the beach and spending time with family and friends.
