background

Tommy grew up in Taiwan before moving to Northern California for middle and high school. He attended Pomona College for undergrad and UC San Diego for medical school, then headed to the Midwest for internal medicine residency at the University of Chicago. After three chilly Chicago winters, he is thrilled to return to the West Coast for cardiology fellowship at the University of Washington. His 
professional interests include multimodality imaging and cardiovascular risk prediction. Outside of medicine, Tommy looks forward to exploring Seattle’s parks and mountains with his wife, Nat, and their cavapoo, Harper.
