Why I chose to pursue a career in healthcare:

I chose a career as a Physician Assistant as I wanted the opportunity to help people navigate their medical problems and the chance to improve their overall wellbeing. I enjoy the challenge that the medical field brings, which continually pushes me to learn and grow as a person and a provider.

What I want my patients to know about me:

I want my patients to know that I will be an advocate for them and will work with them to better understand their medical problems and treatment courses.

What I do when I'm not seeing patients:

When I'm not seeing patients, I'll most likely be spending time with my family. We especially like vacationing in Disney World and traveling to Seattle to visit extended family. I also enjoy cooking, baking, playing and watching sports, and trying new restaurants.
