About
Philosophy of care
My philosophy centers on treating every child as an individual and every family as an important part of the care team. Excellent pediatric care means not only identifying and treating a child's immediate health concerns, but also taking the time to listen, communicate clearly, and make sure families feel informed, supported, and confident in the care plan. I understand how stressful it can be when your child is sick or injured.
Why I entered medicine
I have always felt drawn to caring for children and supporting families. I began my career as a pediatric nurse and spent years caring for children with common illnesses and complex medical needs, including critically ill children. Those experiences inspired me to become a pediatric nurse practitioner so I could take a greater role in evaluating, diagnosing, and treating children while continuing the patient and family advocacy central to my nursing practice.
Community involvement
I am passionate about health education, injury prevention, and helping families access reliable information and resources to support their children's well-being. I have participated in community health initiatives focused on vaccine education and vaccination events.
Personal interests
I enjoy time with my four children and coordinating their many activities as well as traveling, working on creative projects, and being at home with my family.
