As long as I can remember I knew I wanted to be a doctor, working with children and helping people. I was drawn to Mountain Park because I knew I could do all these things and help make a difference in our community.
One of the first things you’ll notice in your appointment with me is that I talk very fast! I do my best to make my patients feel comfortable without any feelings of judgement. I’m a great listener to both my youngest patients and their caregivers.
When I’m not at work my partner and I love to go on walks with our dogs and enjoy swimming. Exercise is super important to keeping me motivated. I also love to meditate and am working at cutting down on junk food.
If I weren’t in medicine, I would have been a kindergarten teacher. I love watching kids learn and grow!
