Why did you choose PTHA?

Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, I wanted nothing more than to train and stay in the area. I chose PTHA because it felt like a great fit and everyone, I interacted with there was kind and supportive. I sought broad community-based training and appreciate working with a diverse patient population including Native community members, unhoused patients, and humans from all walks of life. I am excited for the opportunity to receive training in Native healing, traditions, and culturally sensitive healthcare. Additionally, I appreciate the ability to train in a small close-knit residency program that fosters supportive and strong faculty-resident relationships while also getting to work and train with residents from other programs in the Tacoma area.

What are your interests?

I am passionate about addiction medicine and consider mental health a very important part of family medicine. I believe healthcare is a right and that access to healthcare needs to be improved, especially for those who need it most. I enjoy working with patients towards lifestyle changes that will enhance their well-being.

What are some fun facts about you?

I enjoy the outdoors be it hiking, camping, gardening, or other outdoor sports. I am an avid reader and love to cook and experiment with world cuisines in the kitchen. Fun facts: I lived in Korea for almost nine years, have participated in many long karaoke sessions, have three children, and used to play darts pretty seriously.
