Overview
I chose family medicine as a career due to the opportunity to get to know patients over time. Practicing medicine is a privilege, and patients make it a joy. True health and healing occur through relationships of trust in which a provider understands all of the different aspects of a person's life that affect their health. I spent the first half of my career in academic medicine, helping medical students become physicians. As much as I enjoyed this work, I knew that I wanted to spend the second half of my career in direct patient care: my true passion. My husband and I are from the Triangle, so this change allowed us to come 'home'. We have five children, who we adore and who keep us very busy outside of work. We enjoy all things outdoors and you can find us on a sports field/court supporting our kids most days of the week.
