Why I chose to pursue a career in healthcare?:

I knew from a young age that I wanted to pursue healthcare. I wanted to be able to help care for and heal others. I wanted to help others "feel better". Perhaps the earliest inspiration came from the healthcare professionaIs who helped care for my grandmother who had metastatic breast cancer. I was young then, but witnessed all that she went through. I too wanted to help, and I found being able to help in any way to be rewarding.

What I want my patients to know about me?:

I truly love caring for my patients and their families. I strive to provide excellence in care for each patient by delivering high-quality, evidence-based care. I am firmly committed to providing the kind of care that I would expect for myself, friends, or family.

What I do when I’m not seeing patients?:

When I am not seeing patients, I enjoy spending time with my husband, two daughters, 3 canine kids, friends, and family. I am an exercise enthusiast, with a love for running. We love to travel as a family, exploring nature and new places, while making memories!
