California has been a major influence in my life since childhood – not only as my home but also as a constant source of inspiration for my career. I grew up here, completed my studies in natural sciences in Santa Barbara, and during my medical training, I had the privilege of interning at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital, where I gained invaluable hands-on experience.

​

My passion for surgery eventually led me to a postdoctoral position at the prestigious University of California, Irvine (UCI), where I spent several years working on cutting-edge research. As a board-certified surgeon with years of experience in aesthetic medicine, I’ve had the opportunity to deepen my expertise and stay at the forefront of scientific advances.

​

California continues to shape my work today. It's a hub for the latest trends and innovations in minimally invasive aesthetic medicine, and I bring that knowledge into my practice with precision and a personalized touch. For me, it's not just about cosmetic treatments – it's about science, safety, and enhancing natural beauty.
