Physician Assistant

I am a certified physician assistant who has been a provider at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) since 2014. My focus has been in the division of ophthalmology, specifically cornea, cataract, and glaucoma. I love working with children and their families. I am a dedicated advocate for improving patient care and patient education. Caring for children at CHLA leaves me feeling inspired every day. Witnessing their resilience and ingenuity gives me hope for a better tomorrow. And their curiosity and playfulness remind me not to take myself too seriously. When I am not working at the hospital, I enjoy baking, traveling, and spending time outdoors with my dogs.
