As a full scope women's
health care doctor including being an abortion provider, mother of a
toddler and triathlete, you can guarantee that I have endurance, tenacity
and discipline. I currently serve on the City's Anti-Human Trafficking Task
Force, the board of directors of the California Family Health Council, the San
Francisco Medical Society’s delegation to the California Medical Association,
and is Secretary to the Lower Haight Merchant and Neighborhood Association. All
of these experiences have helped me realize my desire to influence change and
advocate for my community on a larger level by running for public office. I am
also in the current Emerge California 2016 class and understand the importance
of getting more women at the decision making table. As a medical provider, I am
trained to listen and utilize a shared-decision making model to
come up with a plan. I will take these skills and apply them to our San
Francisco residents so that they can be heard and supported via my
participation in the DCCC. Thank you in advance for your support, and I look
forward to working with and for you.
