About
Philosophy of care
My goal is to empower patients with the knowledge and tools to take an active role in their health. Together, we develop a practical, evidence-based treatment plan tailored to their individual needs and goals.
Why I entered medicine
I enjoy problem-solving, building relationships, and making a meaningful difference in lives. I chose allergy and immunology because it allows me to care for patients with conditions that affect many different parts of the body and provide treatments that can significantly improve quality of life.
Personal interests
I enjoy time with my family, running, hiking, playing and watching sports. I grew up in the area and cheer for all the Philadelphia teams with one exception – I am a lifelong Jacksonville Jaguars fan.
