About me
I am a physician assistant in pediatric neurosurgery. This means I work alongside neurosurgeons to care for children with conditions of the brain, spine and nervous system. I evaluate patients in clinic, order and interpret tests, assist in surgery, manage post-operative care and help coordinate follow-up.
I also have a background in addiction medicine and pediatric subspecialties.
My approach to care is rooted in compassion, inclusivity and open communication. I believe in caring for the whole patient, supporting not only their physical health, but also their emotional well-being and the family members who are part of their journey.
I feel so privileged to care for children and their families during some of life's most challenging moments.
Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, camping, traveling, live music and spending time with family, friends and my dog.

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.
