About

I was born and raised in Houston, Texas to immigrant parents. With a scholarship, I studied biology and film at the University of Southern California. I graduated in the top of my class from Nova Southeastern University College of Optometry. I currently provide patient care for the Chinese community of New York City. While I specialize in contact lenses and pediatrics, I predominantly manage a mix of primary care, ocular disease, and surgical cases. My lovely husband and I live in Brooklyn with our sweet daughter and spunky maltipoo.

My clinical training focused on surgical co-management, specialty contact lenses, and ocular disease built upon the foundation of primary eye care. I was an attending physician at Wyckoff Heights Medical Center in Bushwick, Brooklyn. For many years, I served as adjunct faculty for SUNY College of Optometry, teaching fourth-year optometry students on rotations in surgical practices. I work extensively alongside premier ophthalmologists with specialties in retina, glaucoma, cornea, and cataract.

From a young age, I trained in all forms of dance, performing internationally and competing nationally. I am also a visual artist and photographer. I love pottery (hand-building in particular), drawing, painting, and playing in different mediums of visual art. I enjoy taking ballet class, exploring NYC, and being with my loved ones in my free time.

My philosophy is that optometry is an art and a science. As such, the artist in me continues to inspire the clinician in me (and vice versa). My desire and purpose is to blend the highest level of patient care with my creative sensibility.
