About me

I am a breast cancer surgical oncologist who treats adults with breast cancer, pre-malignant breast disease and benign breast disease.



Some of the treatments I offer include breast conservation, skin-sparing and nipple-sparing mastectomy, sentinel node biopsy and oncoplastic surgery.



I am deeply passionate about supporting my patients throughout their breast cancer diagnosis and treatment journey. As a breast surgeon, I ground my patient care in compassion, precision and collaboration. I understand that every patient’s journey is unique, and I prioritize listening to their concerns, ensuring they feel empowered and informed throughout their care. By combining evidence-based medical practices with a personalized touch, I strive to deliver comprehensive care that addresses my patients' physical and emotional needs.



Outside of work, I enjoy staying active and spending quality time with friends and family. As a former college tennis player, I continue engaging with the sport on and off the court. I love exploring good food, whether trying a new restaurant or enjoying a homemade meal. Maintaining a healthy, balanced lifestyle supports my well-being and allows me to provide the best care to my patients.

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
