Overview

I have worked in oncology in various capacities through the years - most recently taking care of people with brain and spine tumors. It has been a privilege to work with patients and their families as they walk through their cancer journey. I hope to work with you on managing your disease and symptoms. Most importantly I hope to grow to know each of you and your stories. When I'm not at work, I'm trying to keep up with my two little ones while hunting for a cup of coffee.
