Why I chose to pursue a career in healthcare:

I like the concept of working with people to help them achieve good health. It is rewarding to work towards a common goal and help others.

What I want my patients to know about me:

I am passionate about what I do and want to meet my patients where they are. I believe in the importance of respecting others and also in creating and sustaining a positive working environment.

What I do when I'm not seeing patients:

Nothing terribly exciting: reading, hanging out with my cats, watercolors and knitting. I have a penchant for black and white movies and sending really awesome mail to my nieces and nephews.
