About

Philosophy of care

My role is to partner with you in maintaining your health and achieving your personal health goals. I want to understand what matters most to you and tailor our care plan to support those priorities and reflect your needs and values. I also see myself as a teacher and a guide, offering medical recommendations, explaining test results, reviewing specialist input and ensuring that all aspects of your care align with what is best for you. I am passionate about the principles of osteopathic medicine, which emphasize the body’s innate ability to heal and the interconnectedness of all aspects of health. I believe in a comprehensive, holistic approach and incorporate osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) when appropriate.

Why I entered medicine

For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by the complexity of the human body and driven by a passion for helping others. My interest in primary care stems from the opportunity it provides to build lasting relationships with patients, promote overall health and be the first point of contact when health concerns arise.

Community involvement

I have been involved in volunteer initiatives focused on supporting children, the LGBTQ+ community and advancing women’s health and safety. Most recently, I contributed to a project aimed at promoting menstrual equity in the Lehigh Valley, working to improve access to essential resources.

Personal interests

I enjoy time with my partner and our dog at the park or exploring new restaurants. I often bake treats for friends and family, and I love being outdoors to paddleboard and ski.
