About Me
I empower my patients to actively participate in their care plans. It’s important to offer choices rather than directives. I treat the whole person, not just the disease and emphasize preventative care and early intervention to maintain health and independence.
I enjoy the physician role because of the meaningful relationships I build with patients and their families. It is an honor to support them during life-changing events, from delivering babies to providing comfort at the end of life. Being trusted during these important moments is a profound blessing.
I decided to pursue medicine at age 9 after my grandmother’s Alzheimer's diagnosis. I was drawn to family medicine because of the strong relationships and the opportunity to care for patients across generations. My residency training deepened my interest in various areas, including women’s health, obstetrics and chronic disease management.
