Why I chose to pursue a career in healthcare:

I chose to pursue medicine as a career because I have always had a passion for science, helping others, and making a difference in people's lives. Medicine is always changing and there is always something new to learn which has always fascinated me.

What I want my patients to know about me:

Patients should expect my full attention from listening to performing an exam to establishing a treatment plan with the collaboration of my supervising physicians if needed.

What I do when I'm not seeing patients:

I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. My husband and I enjoy going to baseball games and Penn State football games. We also enjoy traveling.
