I received my undergraduate degree at the University of Southern California in both Biology and Spanish, after which I moved to Buenos Aires for a year to conduct HIV & tuberculosis research in a state-funded immunology laboratory. I then returned to the US and attended graduate school at Georgetown University, earning a Master of Science (MS) in Biophysics and Physiology. I received my medical degree (MD) from Albany Medical College, graduating in the top 10% of my class, and had the honor of being inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha Albany Medical College Chapter and Gold Humanism Honor Society. I completed six years of training in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery with the Department of Plastic Surgery at the University of California, Irvine, which afforded me the most comprehensive training in the country.

I remain dedicated to restoring a sense of self for patients, helping people age gracefully by enhancing, not changing, one’s natural appearance. Or bringing back that pre-baby body! As a woman, I can appreciate the needs of women in the community and look forward to connecting to you on a relatable level. Schedule a consultation here, I look forward to meeting you!
