I was born and raised in Chugiak, Alaska and am a graduate of Chugiak High School. I went to college at Washington State University in Pullman, Washington, where I received my undergraduate degree in Genetics Cell Biology. I then attended Pacific Northwest University of Health Sciences in Yakima, Washington for medical school. I completed my residency in Internal Medicine at Legacy Emanuel Medical Center in Portland, Oregon in 2022 followed by a Chief Resident year in 2023.

I am excited to have the privilege to return home to Alaska to practice medicine. In my spare time I enjoy hiking, biking, traveling, and spending time with my family and friends.
