Why I chose to pursue a career in healthcare:

I found that learning about how we work as people was fascinating, full of interest and complexity. I wanted to do something that had lasting impact on others and fulfilled my sense of calling to love and care for my neighbor, who ever is put in my path. Putting these two things together led me to a career in clinical psychology.

What I want my patients to know about me:

I am honored to have the opportunity to be trusted and part of the lives of so many people. With that trust comes responsibility to continue to learn and grow, treat others with respect and appreciation; and to strive toward continuously improving myself, my organization and my community.

What I do when I'm not seeing patients:

Sports (racquetball, disc golf, biking and walking with family), reading, gardening
