About

Philosophy of care

As a pediatric pulmonologist, my philosophy is rooted in a commitment to evidence-based medicine that honors the voices and experiences of children and their families. Every child deserves to feel seen, respected and involved in their care, and every parent deserves to be a valued partner in the decision-making process. I practice medicine grounded in the latest scientific evidence and tailored to the unique needs of each child. This means approaching care with clinical excellence, compassion and flexibility. I strive to create a supportive environment where families feel empowered and informed, and where every child – regardless of race, gender, socioeconomic status or background – receives the highest quality care.

Why I entered medicine

I entered medicine to create the kind of environment I wish I had experienced as a child – one where physicians listen to the story of a patient’s life beyond the exam room. I was drawn to pediatrics because I wanted to build lasting, meaningful relationships with families and to be a trusted presence in their lives. My goal is to be an advocate – someone in the community who families can count on to stand alongside them in caring for their children’s health with empathy, respect and dedication.

Personal interests

When not at work, I am home with my fiancé and my Bernese mountain dog, Moose. We love to be in nature – hiking, biking or getting out on the water. I visit national parks every year with my little sister, and I love a good BBQ at my parents' house on weekends. I also love to read, workout and find new cookbook recipes.
