Biography

Born into an immigrant family, I developed a profound appreciation for community and a passion for healthcare early on. At the University of California, Irvine, where I majored in Biological Sciences, I immersed myself in volunteering for hospitals and charities focused on underserved children and teens. These experiences fueled my journey to becoming a physician assistant specializing in family medicine. After earning my Master’s degree from Western University of Health Sciences in 2020, I entered the field equipped with a commitment to preventive medicine and a belief in empowering patients through education and proactive health practices.

 

Practice Philosophy

In my practice as a family medicine physician assistant, I prioritize preventive care and patient education. I firmly believe that promoting an active, healthy lifestyle and early detection are crucial for long-term well-being. By fostering open communication and building trusting relationships with my patients, I strive to empower them to take control of their health. Community engagement and serving those in need remain central to my professional ethos, inspired by my upbringing and the support of my immigrant family.
