I was always fascinated by biology and enjoyed learning about the human body. Over time, I wanted to share what I learned and use the education I was fortunate to have to empower patients. I aim to help patients feel heard and partner with them to develop an evidence-based care plan. I am interested in preventative medicine and hope to educate and motivate patients to take steps that move their health in a positive direction. I like spending time with family (including my senior dog), reading and writing, baking, and spending time outdoors.
