I find great joy in my work because of the relationships that I form with my patients and their families. My hope is to personalize care for each patient and to serve not only medical needs, but also attend to psychosocial and spiritual needs. I am particularly interested in care for children/adolescents with medical complexity and transitions of care from childhood to adulthood. Having spent time in Taiwan and Kenya as well as working with the underserved right here in Durham, I have developed a strong passion for both local and global health advocacy. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, hiking with my dog, watching Disney/Pixar movies, and rooting for Duke basketball and the Buffalo Bills!.

Palliative care is care oriented toward relief of difficult symptoms, usually but not always in patients with very advanced illness. Palliative medicine is a subspecialty of medicine that develops skills, expertise, techniques and practices to address difficult symptoms such as pain, nausea and breathlessness. The first thing I want to know from a patient is their story. Who are they, to whom do they belong, what’s their place, who do they love and who loves them? What has their life work been about? How have they experienced their illness? How has it changed, threatened and disrupted all of that. And I want to know what they hope for with the health and life that remains for them, and what stands most in the way of them being able to continue to live in relationship with those they love and complete the work they have left to do. Then I can use judgment and discernment to apply the interventions that palliative medicine makes possible to help them in that process.

I am a palliative care specialist and help support patients and their families to navigate the challenges of serious illness. As part of my role, I get to know my patients deeply and, in doing so, help support them in getting the care that aligns with who they are as a person. I help support quality of life in several different ways, including treating symptoms associated with serious illness, improving communication with health care teams, helping my patients with difficult decisions regarding their health, and supporting my patient's goals, hopes, and values. I see patients of all ages and all types of diseases but have a special interest in taking care of adolescents and young adults with cancer. I love and am grateful for the work I get to do every day and am constantly learning from my patients. In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors and spending time with my two little girls who remind me every day how special life is.

I am passionate about caring for people of all ages, from premature babies to those who have lived for a century!

It is a privilege for me to offer guidance and support during difficult times when patients face complex decisions about their treatments. I experience great joy doing this work, as I meet wonderful people, develop close relationships with my patients and have the privilege of walking alongside them throughout their illness. I am inspired and awed by the courage, resilience and humor of my patients during very difficult times. I am also passionate about teaching, mentoring and coaching. Aside from finding happiness in my work, I love to travel and experience different cultures, especially with my four adventurous children and my husband. I am a book lover and love to write and read.

I am a Family Physician by training and currently do all of my clinical work with Hospice and Palliative Care. I see patients in the hospital as part of our Palliative Care consult service. In that setting I make suggestions on how to manage difficult symptoms such as pain, shortness of breath, nausea, agitation or others. Working with our team of nurses, social workers and chaplains, I also add another layer of support for patients and families who are navigating serious illness and may be approaching difficult decisions regarding the next steps in care. Our conversations aim to learn more about you, and help us to design care plans focused on supporting what is most important to you. We want to make sure you get all of the information that you need to make choices, get all of the care that you want, and avoid treatments or situations that you don't want. I want to help you feel as good as you can feel right now, so that you may enjoy the highest quality of life possible throughout the path ahead.
