About
Philosophy of care
I view myself as an advocate and an educator for my patients, and greatly enjoy getting to know them and their families over the years. I am also an expert in quality cardiac care. My goal is providing effective, safe and high-value care for all our Heart and Vascular Institute patients.
Why I entered medicine
I loved the science of muscle physiology, cardiac mechanics and therapeutics. I wanted to use this science to help people get better and live longer.
Community involvement
I am a member of the American Heart Association’s Circle of Red Society, women working in the community in various ways to raise awareness about heart disease.
Personal interests
I love spending time with my family. My children are runners and soccer players. My husband and I both run with them and enjoy watching them compete.
