Why I chose to pursue a career in healthcare:

I was driven by a desire to help others. I wanted to do work that would make a meaningful difference in people's lives, empower others to reach their goals and leave the world a little better than I found it.

What I want my patients to know about me:

I greatly value you and the trust you place in me. It is a true privilege and an honor to hear your story and be a part of your care. I believe every person deserves to feel heard, respected and supported, and I strive to create a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself.

What I do when I’m not seeing patients:

I enjoy spending time with family and friends, taking in the scenery on walks with my dogs, getting lost in a good book, cheering on Philly sports teams and Penn State, and continuing my quest to find the best donut.
