About Me
My grandfather, mother, and father were public school teachers. Through their daily service, an enduring passion for education and mentorship developed within our family, a legacy that endures through my 3 siblings (as teachers) and myself as a medical educator. I have been privileged to teach throughout all levels of my educational career prior to joining Kaiser Permanente in 2019. Since my arrival, I have served as the Assistant Program Director tasked to create, implement, and iterate the didactic curriculum for our new program. We subsequently recruited > 100 presenters from a latent academic community within the KP East Bay clinical departments to deliver > 500 didactic hours to our residents. This impressive feat was attributable to a supportive KP community that could see the power of educating the rising generation of mental health professionals and answered the call to educate and mentor. I am honored by the opportunity to serve our East Bay community through compassionate clinical care, as well as to mentor our residents as the Program Director. My greatest desire is that our trainees will leave our program with a desire to be compassionate clinicians, humble mentors, and thoughtful educators.

About Me
I was born in Lebanon and grew up in Paris before moving to the US in undergrad as I was contemplating a career in forensic molecular biology until I discovered my passion for the brain. I completed medical school at Creighton with my clinical years in the satellite campus in Phoenix before moving to New Hampshire for residency at Dartmouth where I was chief resident followed by a Consultation Liaison Psychiatry fellowship at USC. I believe that it was during my training that I grew the most. I value a supportive environment to promote personal and professional growth. Being part of a team who shares the same value makes me proud to work within the he Kaiser Permanente Psychiatry Residency Program. I oversee the PGY3 and PGY4 outpatient rotations. I also serve as the Primary Care-Psychiatry liaison and work on our hospital consult service, with our perinatal population, volunteer on multiple committees and provide TMS. In my free time, I enjoy discovery in all its form, particularly cooking new flavors, traveling over the world in search of adventure and learning from different cultures.

About Me
There is nothing more gratifying and meaningful than helping others feel better. I have been a psychiatrist over 12 years and am looking forward to many more. I have worked in all facets of the profession, including seeing patients in both hospital and private practice, administration, and research. While at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City, I developed programs for assessing psychosis risk. In 2022, I moved to the East Bay to work at Kaiser Permanente - and so I could go on hikes in nature every day! The colleagues I have at the Oakland Medical Center are dedicated knowledgeable professional as well as amazing human beings. I am proud to work along side them. I am grateful to be able to practice psychiatry at Kaiser Permanente. It keeps me fascinated with the brain and its functions while allowing me to provide means for patients to obtain mental health and wellness within an excellent integrated system. The collaborative approach with other specialties and primary care is the best one could hope for in terms of optimal care. It's great to be a part of it.

About Me
I am originally from the Washington, DC area and moved to California after completing my undergraduate studies. I completed my undergraduate medical education at Touro University College of Osteopathic Medicine in Vallejo, California. I moved to Charleston, South Carolina to complete my residency program in Adult Psychiatry, where I also served as Co-Chief Resident. Following residency, I moved back to the Bay Area and practiced inpatient psychiatry for five years. In 2014, my family and I took the opportunity to live and work in New Zealand for five years. While in New Zealand, I worked in several services including: Inpatient, Crisis & Home-based Treatment team, Consultation-Liaison, Perinatal, and Emergency services. I provided ECT and served as the Lead Psychiatrist for the ECT service. In New Zealand, I was deeply involved with both undergraduate and graduate medical education. I was a clinical preceptor for medical students from the University of Auckland, clinical supervisor for registrars (residents) and held a part-time teaching position with the University of Auckland. During this time, I took the opportunity to dive deeper into my interest in teaching and completed a postgraduate certificate program in Clinical Education through the University of Auckland. Upon returning to the United States, I resumed inpatient work briefly before joining The Permanente Medical Group in Oakland. I’ve spent time recently helping to develop an outpatient perinatal clinic in our department, as well as a perinatal elective in the residency program. I’ve completed the certified Perinatal Mental Health provider (PMH-C) program through Postpartum Support International. I am currently serving as Co-Site Chief of the Oakland psychiatry department and Director of Education for the residency program. I love teaching and being involved with the growth and development of our didactic offerings! My professional interests include perinatal and women’s reproductive mental health, interventional psychiatry, clinical education, and leadership. My personal interests include traveling with my family, coaching youth rugby, hiking and soccer.

About Me
I grew up in South Korea and immigrated to Hawaii where I lived with my family for 8 years. I left for California to attend UC Berkeley where I obtained a B.A. in Mass Communications and an M.B.A. After working as a CPA at an international firm, I went into banking, first as a project manager and then as VP of Risk Management. Always interested in the field of mental health, I left the familiar world of business and pursued an MSW and LCSW. My entry to social work was with at-risk and homeless seniors and the immigrant AAPI population whose lives continue to reverberate through me. I joined Kaiser’s Adult Psychiatry department, first as a therapist and later serving as manager of the Group Therapy program and the Behavioral Health Education program. I joined GME because I am interested in helping to grow future mental health providers, pioneers, and innovators.
