Originally from Alaska, I completed my undergraduate studies at Stanford University, followed by medical training at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle. After a residency in General Psychiatry at Oregon Health & Science University in Portland, I returned to Seattle to complete a fellowship in Child Psychiatry at Seattle Children’s Hospital. Since 2003, I have been dedicated to private practice and actively engaging with the community. In 2012, I founded the Sendan Center and I have enjoyed living and working in Bellingham ever since.
