About

I am an ANCC Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner, and I’ve been practicing in Oregon for the past seven years. After living in Hawaii for 14 years, my family and I made the decision to return to the mainland—and we’ve fallen in love with all the incredible activities and natural beauty this area has to offer.

​

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing in 2007 and my Master of Science in Nursing in 2009 from the University of Hawaii. In 2017, I completed my Doctorate in Nursing Practice through Frontier University. After relocating to Oregon, I pursued a post-master’s certification in Psychiatry to expand my ability to serve rural communities in need of compassionate, specialized mental health care.

My approach to care is individualized, compassionate, and rooted in patient-centered health and wellness. I deeply value the importance of creating a welcoming, trusting environment as the foundation for thoughtful and effective mental health treatment.

​

It’s my passion to bring not only clinical expertise but also the warmth of the "aloha spirit" into my practice. I look forward to getting to know you and your family, building a partnership based on trust, integrity, and mutual respect.
