About
I choose to become a nurse practitioner because it allows me to combine compassionate patient-centered care with advanced clinical decision making. My philosophy of care is centered on a patient‑first, holistic approach. I believe every patient is unique and has individual needs, and care should be tailored to meet those specific goals and needs. My areas of special interest are gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my children and helping to develop skills. I enjoy watching their sports and learning about new sports so that they have the opportunity to teach me.
