As an undergraduate at UCLA she was elected to Phi Beta Kappa and graduated with the highest honors of Summa Cum Laude. Both medical school and business school followed.

Coming from a family of physicians including her great-grandfather, grandfather and both her parents, she was immersed into the world of medicine at a very early age. Whether it was discussing interesting cases over dinner or following her parents in the hospital during the weekend rounds, medicine has always been part of her life.

Her mother taught her how to treat people with respect, love, and compassion.
