Hometown: Sacramento, CA
Medical School: Kansas City University
I was born and raised in Sacramento, CA. I started my undergraduate education at UC Santa Cruz and transferred to American University in Washington, DC where I completed my degree in psychology and chemistry. I attended medical school 5 years later at Kansas City University in Kansas City, MO. Currently my psychiatry interests are primarily mood disorders, eating disorders and addictions, outpatient psychotherapy, and consult liaison psychiatry. In my free time I like going out to different restaurants around Spokane and I love to cook – had I not become a doctor I would have gone to culinary school. I am a dog lover and have an 8 year old American Bulldog I try to cuddle as much as possible. I also like to be outdoors, hiking, paddle boarding, etc.
