I earned my medical degree from Oregon Health & Science University and completed my psychiatry residency at the University of California, Irvine. My training provided me with extensive experience in mental health assessments, diagnostic evaluations, and evidence-based psychiatric care.

My expertise extends to maternal mental health, psychiatric disorders in women, and sports psychiatry, giving me a well-rounded perspective when conducting psychiatric evaluations for medical-legal cases. I have also worked in mental and behavioral rehabilitation programs within the California corrections system, further strengthening my ability to assess complex psychiatric cases.

As a Qualified Medical Evaluator (QME), I specialize in comprehensive psychiatric assessments for workers’ compensation cases, disability evaluations, and impairment ratings. My goal is to provide objective, medically supported findings that assist attorneys, claims administrators, and employers in making informed decisions.
