About me
I am a Registered Dietitian and Diabetes Care and Education Specialist. I am committed to helping people with diabetes build the confidence and knowledge they need to live their best life. I aim to help them find creative solutions to address their diabetes goals. This includes helping others to build and maintain a positive relationship with food. Outside of work, I enjoy watching waves at the beach, listening to stand-up comedy, and snacking.

Insurance
Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher. Visit the billing and insurance section of our site for more information.
