I have always had a passion for helping others. Even as a little girl, I knew I was meant to become a physician. What I love most about medicine is the opportunity to help people heal, not only physically, but also emotionally and within the context of their daily lives. I believe in caring for the whole person, and I value taking the time to truly get to know my patients and understand what matters most to them.

NOAH provides the environment and resources that make whole-person care possible. Working alongside behavioral health, nutrition, and dental professionals allows us to support our patients from every angle. We also focus on strengthening our community and addressing factors that impact overall health, helping create better outcomes for the people we serve.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends and finding new adventures to share with them. I love cooking, gardening, caring for my lawn, traveling, and getting lost in a good book.

For me, medicine is more than a career, it’s a calling. If I suddenly had unlimited resources, I would make sure my family and friends were well supported, donate to organizations like NOAH and others that are making a positive impact in our communities, travel the world, and still find ways to care for patients as a physician (at least a little bit).
