About me
I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area, where I attended UC Berkeley for college followed by UCSF for graduate school. I earned my combined MD/MPH at Tulane University in New Orleans. Thereafter I completed Internal Medicine residency in Iowa City, and then Infectious Disease fellowship in San Diego, where I pursued additional medical education training through the Clinician Educator track. Following fellowship I joined the faculty at Loma Linda University, working in both General ID and HIV Medicine roles in a largely underserved setting. There, I also served as an interprofessional education instructor within the School of Dentistry under a Part F grant from the Ryan White AIDS Education and Training Center. I am passionate about medical education at all levels, as well as the care of people living with HIV. Outside of work I can be found relaxing with my family and two cats.

Insurance
Before scheduling an appointment
- Check your network. If you have health insurance, call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
- Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.
If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
