Sofia was a family practitioner medical doctor.  She became board certified in Family Practice medicine in 1994 and had practiced at Blue Hills Medical Group, in Cupertino, CA from December of 1997 to mid 2021.  Sofia was a member of the American Academy of Family Physicians.  She was also affiliated with El Camino Mt View Hospital, Good Samaritan Hospital, and the El Camino Los Gatos Hospitals.

Sofia completed her undergraduate education at UC Davis, in Nutrition Science.  She graduated from University of California, Irvine College of Medicine and completed her residency in Family Medicine at San Bernardino County Medical Center.

Sofia enjoyed being an integral part of a family’s health, especially regarding patient centered preventive and integrative care.  She was a proactive adopter of healthcare technology, including systems, devices and procedures which help to increase the standard of care, to improve patient outcomes.

With profound sadness we were forced to confront Sofia's sudden and tragic passing in mid 2021.  She was a trusted advisor, loyal friend and unwavering supporter of our socially conscious technology mission.  Her kind spirit, gentle nature and warm smile are deeply missed.  Sofia was truly one of the brightest lights among us.  All of us at 2-Dooz are diminished by her loss.  We will endeavor to move forward in Sofia's memory and will re-double our efforts to develop novel technology based treatments and adjunct therapies for mental health.

Sofia's passing was the catalyst for the creation of the Resilience Tech-Forum (RTF) and the motivation for the RTF's work on suicide prevention.   The Resilience Suicide Prevention Study is examining how chronic stress punctuated by acute stress during a personal crisis can increase a military veteran’s risk of a death of despair.
