Dr. Law is a dual board certified family physician through the American Board of Family Medicine and the American Osteopathic Board of Family Physicians. Her interest in preventative medicine and nutrition education started at a young age and has shaped her personally and professionally. Particularly, her experience with fueling and athletic performance as a young multisport athlete motivated her interest in learning how food affects health prior to medical school. She deferred her medical school acceptance to complete a Masters of Science in Human Nutrition at Columbia University. After obtaining her medical degree at Nova Southeastern University - Kiran C. Patel College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2017, she completed her Family Medicine Residency at Franciscan St. James Hospital, where she served as Chief Resident.
Dr. Law is currently working in urgent care in Kaiser Permanente Southern California and will be starting sports medicine fellowship in Inova Fairfax Medical Campus in Fairfax, VA in July 2022. Her long term goal is to practice primary care sports medicine and to integrate culinary medicine into her practice to serve her athletes and the general population. In addition to culinary medicine, she has keen interests in osteopathic manipulative medicine, academic medicine, e-sports, running medicine, and military medicine. Her hobbies outside of work are making a mess in the kitchen, caring for her house trained rabbits named Panda and Mochi, shopping in local farmers markets, and competing in endurance sports.

After pursing Internal Medicine residency at University of Florida and subspecialty training in Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism at Stanford University and Clinics I moved to MUSC in 2006. During my first years as an Attending I realised that my education in nutrition had been subpar, and an interaction with a patient suffering from food insecurity changed my path going forward. Since then I have pursued nutrition education on my own with a specific focus towards addressing them within the realm of food insecurity in my patients. Approximately half of my time is spent in teaching students with the hope of expanding their own nutrition education and their understanding of how that interacts with noted social determinants of health in their patients' lives.
