My passion for healthcare began when my dog was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Watching him lose his vision and muscle mass, I realized how important it is to educate and support others in improving their health and quality of life and empower people.   

What drew me to Mountain Park is the team-based approach to care. I can be part of a community where everyone works together, registered dietitians and behavioral health to give power to the patients for their own care. Patients can expect a partnership with me during their consultations. I enjoy working collaboratively with them to help them reach their health goals and making sure they are actively involved in their care instead of feeling like it’s being done “to” them.   

Balancing work and life are important to me, and I am grateful to have such a supportive team while I am away. Knowing that my patients are taken care of helps me with self-care.   
If I weren’t a pharmacist, I would be a teacher in a role where I could share my passion for guiding and empowering others.
