Background
I was born in Southern California and I grew up in Long Beach. I first came to the San Francisco Bay Area when I went to UC Berkeley, majoring in Molecular and Cell Biology. After completing my undergraduate degree in three years with high honors, I moved to the Midwest for medical school. At the Chicago Medical School of the Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, I graduated at the top of my class in 2005 and was inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha medical honor society.
Another move brought me to Honolulu for a year, where I completed my internship in Internal Medicine at the University of Hawaii, earning an Outstanding Intern Award in the process. I then went to SUNY Buffalo for my residency in dermatology. During my last year of residency, I was honored to be selected as Chief Resident for the residency program. Upon finishing the residency, I returned to the San Francisco Bay Area where I joined Kaiser Permanente in 2009.
At my clinic in Milpitas, I specialize in general dermatology, dermatologic surgery, and pediatric dermatology. I also work at the Kaiser Permanente Cosmetic Clinic in San Jose, where I do cosmetic dermatology.
Roles and Responsibilities

In addition, I represent the dermatology department on the Comprehensive Cancer Care Committee at Santa Clara.
