About me
I am an advanced practice provider with experience in treating hematologic malignancies, also known as blood cancers and disorders. I work at OHSU’s Knight Cancer Institute and have a particular focus on multiple myeloma and related conditions like amyloidosis and plasma cell leukemia (PCL).
Some of the treatments I provide my patients include:
- Bone marrow biopsies
- Lumbar punctures
- Chemotherapy management and treatment plans (in coordination with the patient’s oncologist)
My approach to care is patient-centered, caring and holistic, emphasizing each individual's unique needs and overall well-being. I strive to build long-term connections with my patients and support their wellness journey through compassionate care.
Outside of work, I enjoy being outdoors backpacking, biking, camping or running with my wife and dog, Artie. I also love spending time along the river, going to the coast and exploring the Mt. Hood wilderness.

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.
