I am a first-generation Chinese-American born in Honolulu Hawaii and raised in a Cantonese Chinese-speaking household. I am a Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner and received my education & training at Duke University. I am fortunate enough to have been exposed to Eastern Medicine during my upbringing, which marries well with my education in Western medicine. I currently practice in the Portland Metro area where I see patients ranging from newborns through the end of life, and everything in between. My philosophy in medicine is to prevent illness and increase quality of life all while being status-neutral, sex-positive, trauma-informed, and promoting body autonomy. My practice interests are in HIV & STI prevention, Depression & Anxiety care, and Pediatrics.
