"I am an adolescent medicine specialist because I believe adolescents are not just big children or young adults. It is a time of transition, development of health and life beliefs, and the springboard for a successful life. I treat children because they are our future and represent the best that we have to offer as humans. I first stated I wanted to be a pediatrician when I was 18 months old, and I feel privileged to get to practice my childhood dream every day. I believe that if you can help a young person make good choices around their health, relationships and education now — you are securing for them an adult life of good health. I am passionate about education and view one of a doctor's primary jobs as a teacher. I am motivated by the """"aha"""" look in a patient's eyes when they understand a new concept related to their health. In addition to patients, I also enjoy teaching medical students, residents and fellows. I volunteer my spare time doing community health talks and mentoring. I also enjoy learning new things about others through reading, travel, photography, the arts and culinary exploration. I try to make a difference by advocacy on the individual and societal level. Adolescents need caring adults who listen to them, empower them and fight for them. I give each young person that I encounter time to speak what is on their mind — what their biggest dreams and biggest fears are. I learn so much from these stories and I use them to fuel the passion I bring when I advocate for adolescents on the local, state, and national levels of government and medical organizations.".
