    What I Do

    My philosophy of care is to treat my patients, regardless of their age or diagnosis, with kindness, compassion and understanding. I tailor treatment to the unique goals of my patients, helping them achieve the skills necessary for daily living tasks and enabling them to participate in their hobbies, work and play.

    My clinical interests include pediatrics, lymphedema management and acute rehabilitation.

    Why I Love My Work

    I truly enjoy seeing the smiles from adults and children when they succeed, even in the little things.

    I was motivated to enter health care because I have always enjoyed helping people, especially children, learn and grow. Being an occupational therapist allows me to be creative and help my patients find ways to do the things they need and want to do.

    Getting to Know Me

    Outside of work, I enjoy time with my husband and five children. I like camping, mountain biking, baking and decorating cakes, cooking new recipes, sewing and singing.
