I am originally from the East Coast but have called Portland my home for the past 14 years. I attended college in Chicago and then went to medical school at Drexel University in Philadelphia before moving out to the Pacific Northwest to complete my internship and residency in Family Medicine at OHSU. I have spent the past 20 years working as a primary care physician in a variety of practices and locations, including a federally qualified health center (FQHC) in the Bronx, NY, a farmworker clinic in the Hudson Valley, and a large, mission-driven patient-centered medical home practice here in Portland. My interests include preventive care, women’s health, and chronic disease management.

I feel honored and excited to return to OHSU and look forward to caring for the students, postdoctoral students, and their partners here at Student Health and Wellness.

When I'm not at work, I enjoy spending time with my two kids, husband, three cats, and a dog. I also love hiking and biking.
