About
Philosophy of care
My philosophy of care is based on patient diversity. I believe every treatment plan needs to be individually tailored to each patient and their respective goals. I will establish a rapport with you, listen to your symptoms in detail, educate you about your condition, give you options for your care, and work with you on your best treatment plan.
Why I entered medicine
My undergraduate studies were centered in kinesiology and exercise science. For that I shadowed many local physical therapists, sparking my interest in orthopedics. I decided to apply to physician assistant (PA) school and began working in a local emergency room as a scribe for patient care hours. There I saw many acute orthopedic traumas being treated.
Community involvement
I have taught children horseback riding and volunteered with hospice patients.
Personal interests
I own a horse and ride almost daily, competing in both stadium jumping and cross country events. I also enjoy snowboarding, playing softball, and watching an array of sporting events.
