background

I was born in Lima, Peru though grew up in Kansas and then a rural town in Northern California. I attended Pomona College and medical school at the University of California Los Angeles. I moved to Seattle for residency at the University of Washington and am thrilled to be staying for my cardiology training. During my free time, I find joy in exploring Seattle parks, reading, and playing tennis with my husband Gabe.
