Always interested in women's access to care, she started a women's clinic in Sacramento, Womankind, during medical school, and volunteered at Lyon-Martin Clinic in San Francisco during her OB/GYN residency at Kaiser San Francisco. She will receive the UC Davis Medical School Alumni Transformational Leadership Award this May for her work in founding and developing PINCC (Prevention International: No Cervical Cancer).  She is also a grandmother, amateur artist and birder.
