Certified Master Integrative Life Coach
I’m a Certified Master Integrative Life Coach with more than a decade of experience, trained through The Ford Institute. I've worked with thousands of folks from all walks of life. In addition to my private coaching practice, I'm proud to serve as a trusted partner at various health facilities in Reno, bringing proven approaches in mind-body awareness to patients that directly improve their quality of life and response to care. On a more personal note, the simple things in life bring me the most joy. I still love taking road trips with my sister and playing cards with my 89-year-old mom. I live in Reno, where I can often be found hiking with my dog Abby, talking to my parrot Peetee, taking dance classes, and hanging out with great friends over good food or coffee, talking for hours.

Chief of Anesthesiology, Carson Tahoe Regional Medical Center
Education B.S. Biological Sciences, Stanford University 6/1993 M.D. Tulane University 5/1997 Residency/Fellowship Transitional Internship Virginia Mason Medical Center 6/1997-6/1998 Anesthesiology Residency Virginia Mason Medical Center 6/1998-6/2001 Pediatric Anesthesiology Fellowship Seattle Children’s Hospital 7/2001-7/2002 I am a seasoned anesthesiologist who spent most of my professional career working at a level 2 trauma center and tertiary referral center for a catchment area of over one million people in private practice. Additionally, I enjoy concurrent academic positions at Stanford University, where I also practice pediatric anesthesia, and the University of Nevada. Teaching forces me to stay on top of new developments in pediatric anesthesiology and continuously exposes me to the enthusiasm of young learners. Practicing in Reno gave me experience doing index pediatric, trauma, thoracic, obstetric, bariatric, non operating room, ambulatory, regional, and general cases in patients who would have been referred to academic centers had they lived elsewhere. This experience made me comfortable managing any patient who rolled into the hospital, and taught me how invaluable good team dynamics are in high acuity situations. As of January 2023, I work for CCI as Chief of Anesthesiology at Carson Tahoe Hospital.
