Associate Director
Some folks around here might call me a "lifer." I say that because my first experience at Long Beach Memorial Family Medicine was as a medical student in the summer of 1989 when I rotated as a fourth-year medical student. I went on to train as a resident at Long Beach from 1990 to 1993, and in my third year, I assumed the role of administrative chief resident. After graduation, I joined the faculty and I have been having fun learning and developing skills as a teacher and family physician ever since. I am now one of two Associate Directors, and I assume many teaching and administrative roles at the residency program. I work with our Office Manager and Program Director on the operational functions of the Family Medicine Center.
Clinically and academically, I have interests in women's health and preventive medicine. Recently, I have enjoyed learning about information technology and its application to medicine and patient care. Outside of the residency program, I have been involved as a physician leader. I currently chair the hospitals' Physicians' Informatics Committee as we prepare for the implementation of an entirely new electonic health reacord. At the state level, I have been involved with the California Academy of Family Physicians, having served as a member of the Medical Student and Residency Affairs Committee and as president of the the CAFP-Foundation. I am an alumna of Loma Linda University Medical School, and I completed my undergraduate degree in Biology at the University of California, Irvine. I enjoy running (much more slowly now than in my "glory days"), hiking, camping and watching the Lakers.
