Biography What I Do
My philosophy of care is to connect with patients by meeting them where they are in that moment. There is not a need to have perfectly controlled diabetes, depression, or addiction prior to seeing me. People can come as they are, and we will work together for better health. My clinical interests include obstetrics, addiction medicine, mental health, ultrasound, chronic disease management, advanced healthcare directive/end-of-life discussions, gender-affirming therapy, and LGBTQ+ Health.
I’ve completed additional training in transgender and gender-diverse medical care.
Why I Love My Work
Being able to take care of families and their worries from head to toe provides a lot of variety and allows me to continue learning, one patient at a time. I also enjoy taking care of women throughout pregnancy, delivering babies, and watching that family grow.
Getting to Know Me
Outside of work, I enjoy reading, lounging with my two retired racing greyhounds, and playing board games with my husband.
