Meet the Team

Tina Tran started off as a receptionist back in 2000 when she was 18yrs old. She currently has 20+ years of experience in the optometry field. Styling patients with the best look when picking out the right frames is the fun part of her job. Seeing patients happy and excited about their new look is what makes her so passionate about her role and position.

When not being a workaholic, Tina enjoys spending time with her kids, husband and family. She loves to travel but most of all she loves to eat! Trying different places to eat is always on her mind. Food will always make a girl happy and full!

You never know when an internship might blossom into something else. Just look at Lexy, an optician at Kubo Optometry, for proof. One minute she was just an intern at the clinic and getting her feet wet in the world of optometry. A few months later Lexy was working at the clinic full-time!

Lexy loves how diverse the clientele at the practice is and the warm, inviting atmosphere that clinic presents. Nothing beats warmly welcoming a patient before tending to their issues. She gushes about working with amazing team members who work hard to make sure every task is completed before the end each day.

While Lexy loves the field of optometry, she also loves engaging in a variety of hobbies. You can catch her outside taking a nice, relaxing hike, on an airplane traveling the world, or in the kitchen baking yummy goods!

Sometimes in life, you have to simply reach out and grab whatever it is that you desire. Christina really wanted an internship at Kubo Optometry, so she reached out to Dr. Huynh, and was rewarded with it. Fast forward a few years later, she’s now an optician at Kubo Optometry!

Christina gushes about the environment at the eye clinic. She loves being able to learn about eye care while simultaneously interacting with different types of people from different backgrounds.

When Christina isn’t busy at the office helping clients with their eye issues, you can find her staying busy in other ways. She enjoys painting, reading books and keeping up with her fitness by exercising.

At the beginning of 2020, Rachel was an intern at Kubo Optometry. Roughly 18 months later, she’s now a dedicated optician at the clinic!

As an intern, Rachel began shadowing the doctor at the clinic. Her duties involved pretesting patients, which would help her learn and gain valuable experience in the optometry field.

Rachel is a lifelong resident of Elk Grove, CA. She graduated from University of California-Davis with a degree in nutrition biology. Next she plans on pursuing her goal of becoming an optometrist, and is excited to begin optometry school next fall. 

Rachel’s hobbies include playing tennis, checking out new shows on Netflix, and trying out new restaurants. She also loves to travel!

The field of optometry is always evolving, so there’s always something new to learn. This is what drew Khudaija to the field – she has always been fascinated by the vast amount of knowledge and learning it involves. After completing her undergraduate studies at University of California-Davis, she secured an optician internship at Kubo Optometry to learn more about the field. Five months later she became a full-time optician at the practice!

Khudaija chose to get involved in optometry because she believes that the eyes are one of the most important body parts that we have. She wanted to not only learn more about the field, but to also help others take care of their vision. Kubo Optometry gives her an ideal platform to do just that.

Since joining the practice, Khudaija has had a chance to interact with and meet a variety of patients and deal with different cases. She relishes the hustle and bustle of the office and the unforeseen challenges that pop up on a daily basis. One of the most inspirational moments in her career came courtesy of a senior citizen patient who wished she took better care of her eyes. 

Originally from Pakistan, Khudaija moved to Sacramento, CA at the age of one. When she’s not assisting clients at the clinic she has a litany of activities that keep her occupied. She enjoys traveling, horseback riding and performing social work. You might even catch her curled up on the couch reading a good book!
