  What I Do

  I practice patient-centered care by involving my patients in as many decisions as possible, allowing them to maintain control over their health. While I use my expertise to guide and advise, I strive to give them as much autonomy as possible.

  Why I Love My Work

  I enjoy building relationships with patients, as well as collaborating with the entire care team, including physicians, nurses and techs. I chose a career in internal medicine because it allows me to be a "jack-of-all-trades," helping patients navigate the health care system and make informed decisions during challenging times.

  Getting to Know Me

  I’m passionate about outdoor activities like biking, running, swimming and camping. Since moving to Minnesota, I'm also eager to try cross-country skiing!
