Overview
I love problem-solving and working with people. I am privileged to partner with patients to help them achieve their health goals. I aim to foster a strong patient-doctor relationship that takes into account each patient’s preferences, lifestyle, and social determinants of health. Teaching helps me stay up to date with new medical information. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two children. I like hiking, running, reading, and spending time outdoors.
