I am a passionate Physician Assistant with a strong interest in pediatrics and the Pacific Northwest. I am a proud graduate of the University of Washington’s MEDEX PA program and also have a BS in Sport Science and a BA in Spanish for Health Professions from Idaho State University.

I am dedicated to guiding families through the critical early development stages, monitoring progress in motor, social and speech and promoting timely early intervention when indicated. I also have a deep commitment to adolescent mental health, particularly in working with teens experiencing anxiety and depression. I strive to create a safe, compassionate space where they feel heard and supported. Having personally navigated complex medical conditions during childhood, I am motivated to serve as the type of pediatric provider my family and I deeply appreciated—one who is empathetic, clinically knowledgeable, and responsive to individual needs.

I am currently certified in Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) and Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP). I have experience performing Nexplanon insertions and removals as well as toenail wedge resections and simple lacerations.

Outside of work, I enjoy barre workouts, fostering bottle-fed puppies, playing with my golden doodle Pfeiffer and unwinding with a competitive round of Mario Kart on the Nintendo Switch! I am excited to meet you in clinic where all questions are welcome!
