About
Philosophy of care
Finding health, not disease, is my goal. I look forward to discussing with you the six pillars of lifestyle medicine: Nutrition (eating whole foods). Sleep (seven to nine hours). Exercise (movement is medicine). Stress (harness it for better living). Risky substances (ways to avoid them). Relationships (seek strong social connections).
Why I entered medicine
The human being is a wonderful, complex, miraculous creation, and I have had a long-standing interest in health and healing. But medicine is my second career – I first worked as a chemical engineer. Today I apply to the practice of medicine those experiences in problem-solving, root cause analysis and process optimization. Rather than simply prescribing you another medicine to treat a symptom, I prefer to understand the root cause and, if possible, eliminate it.
Community involvement
I am excited to participate in the Lehigh Valley Blue Zones Project. I am so glad Lehigh Valley Health Network has made the choice to partner with Blue Zones to transform the health of our region in "Making the healthy choice the easy choice."
Personal interests
I enjoy pursuing a healthy lifestyle and sharing that passion with others. I adhere to a whole food plant-based diet and love to cook. I also love spending time in nature hiking, biking, stand-up paddleboarding, sailing and camping. I regularly practice yoga and meditation.
