Who We Are

Personal Statement

I am Board Certified in both general psychiatry as well as forensic psychiatry. I am a Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and a member of the Ethics and Resident Education Committees of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law (AAPL). I have twice earned the prestigious Young Investigator Award from AAPL. Since 2014, I have served as the AAPL Young Physician Delegate to the American Medical Association.
 
I have also served as an expert witness or consultant in legal cases involving criminal and civil competencies; criminal responsibility; malpractice; personal injury; sexual and gender harassment; and fitness for duty, among others. I teach courses in forensic mental health at the University of Washington and speak locally and nationally on topics related to psychiatry and the law.
