She was born and raised in Vietnam and immigrated to the United States at the age of 17, an experience that continues to influence her approach to both medicine and leadership. She places a strong emphasis on structure, patience, and steady progress. She completed all of her post-secondary education in the U.S., earning a Bachelor’s degree in Biology, a Master of Science, and a Doctor of Medicine.

Her clinical experience spans outpatient care, emergency medicine, urgent care, telemedicine, and obesity medicine. This diverse background enables her to view health holistically, as an interconnected system rather than a series of isolated issues. In recent years, she has concentrated her practice on weight management and long-term wellness.

Alongside her civilian work, she serves as a physician in the Army National Guard and is currently pursuing an MBA to expand her expertise in healthcare leadership and operations. Outside of her professional responsibilities, she is an avid runner who enjoys the outdoors, fitness, and maintaining an active lifestyle that aligns with the values she promotes to her patients.
