About
Philosophy of care
My philosophy of care is to apply the same passion, tenacity and focus to you as I would if caring for my own loved ones. To quote Hippocrates: "Wherever the art of medicine is loved, there is also a love of humanity."
Why I entered medicine
I chose to become a nurse practitioner after my brother was diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. I witnessed his care and decided I wanted to provide the same compassion in support of my patients and their families throughout some of the most difficult times of their lives.
Community involvement
At a time of pandemic and protests, I have volunteered at COVID vaccine clinics and rallied in support of colleagues with racially diverse backgrounds.
Personal interests
I love spending time with my husband and husky enjoying the outdoors, whether hiking or grilling in the summer or snowshoeing in the winter. My husband and I also enjoy cooking together and experimenting with new recipes.
