Thank you for reading! I am a Bay Area native. I came to Modesto for my residency at Valley Family Medicine in 2011. I decided to stay in the area and join the faculty to continue caring for our under-served patients. I enjoy group care, mentoring and advising residents. I also helped start our Rainbow Clinic and enjoy providing care to the LGBT+ community.
I love all things Disney and Marvel.

Born in San Francisco, I grew up in the Bay Area, went to medical school in Arizona, and eventually ended up in Modesto for continuation of my training as a physician. I was fortunate enough to work alongside excellent residents and faculty. Based on my positive experience, I decided to stay after graduating in 2017 as an attending, thus giving back to the program and serving the underprivileged community here.
Outside of work, I enjoy exercising, listening to music, doing outdoor activities (like hiking), watching sitcoms/movies, and spending time with family/friends.

I grew up in Taiwan and am a bay area transplant. I always knew I wanted to pursue medicine, but decision was solidified after my medical mission trip to Peru. Like many of my colleagues, I decided to stay as VCME faculty after residency because of the strong bonds I formed with my colleagues and my passion in serving this community.
​
My hobbies include tending to house plants, binging tv shows, practicing sustainable living!

Hi, I am a graduate from the VCME family medicine residency program and joined core faculty shortly after my graduation, I am involved in in-patient, out-patient rotations as well as curricular design, POCUS and a variety of additional activities. Teaching and training residents and watching their growth over time is tremendously fulfilling for me and that is the reason that despite a long commute, I plan on staying with the program.
