I was born and raised in San Diego, California. In 2019, I graduated with Honors from The University of Arizona, earning a Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences, with a minor in Public Health. I completed my clinical training in Yuma, Arizona, where I served underserved patient populations. Subsequently, I graduated in 2025 from A.T. Still University of Health Sciences with a Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies.

I firmly believe that healthy habits begin in childhood, and that prevention is the most effective treatment. My passion for pediatrics stems from the collaborative, team-based approach to patient care, which includes both the child and their caregiver in creating a personalized care plan. My goal is to empower my patients as they grow and develop during their early years.

I am thankful for the chance to be a lifelong learner, educate patients and their families, and engage in shared decision-making to help my patients establish a strong and healthy foundation for their futures. In my free time, I enjoy yoga, indoor bouldering, birdwatching, cooking, and spending quality time with my senior cat. I also dedicate part of my time to mentoring pre-PA students.
