Summary

I was born and raised in San Diego, California. The Army brought me to the Pacific Northwest, which I now consider my home. I served in the Army for 17 years, first completing medical training and then serving as a Cardiologist at Madigan Army Medical Center. I served as a general medical officer during the Iraqi war in 2006/2007, were I was awarded the Bronze Star for my service. I met my husband while serving in Iraq and now have a young daughter who amazes us both every day. I chose medicine because I wanted to make a difference in people_s lives. I am the operational chief of cardiology in Tacoma.
