Her interests include the intersection of midwifery, health policy, inequities in women’s health care, and health care outcomes. In the context of unmet need in women's health care and health care reform, she believes that midwifery care is a unique solution; midwives provide a fundamental contribution to the health care workforce, but are also an untapped resource in the spectrum of women's health care providers.She is the Assistant Director of the Nurse-Midwifery education program at UCSF, co-chair of the California Nurse-Midwives Association's Health Policy Committee and Chair of the Diversification and Inclusion Taskforce for the American College of Nurse-Midwives. She currently practices with the Nurse-Midwives of San Francisco General Hospital and with the UCSF Young Women's Program housed in the Women's Community Clinic.
