I value relationships with patients and their families. As a Family Medicine physician, I see children and adults of all ages and complexity. I seek to educate and collaborate with my patients to together make health care decisions consistent with their values.

Family time with my husband and children is a priority for me, and I strive to find balance between my work and home life. I enjoy gardening, hiking, biking and quiet time spent in prayer or reading an engaging book.
