It’s important for me to take a “full-bodied” approach to my diagnosis and treatment plan, including more than just “skin” in the way we approach a problem. By listening and getting to know my patients, I think we can find the best treatment options that will be feasible and maintainable for their lifestyle. The best part of my job is educating my patients so that they can be their own advocates. Earning my patients’ trust in helping to care for them is a responsibility I do not take lightly and am immensely grateful for.

Personal Interests
I enjoy spending time with my 1 year old golden retriever and fiancé. We enjoy hiking, going on walks and to the dog beach! You can usually find me checking out a new restaurant or coffee shop and if not there, I’m probably working out, shopping or on vacation! I love adventure travel with skiing and hiking, but also enjoy discovering the world abroad or relaxing on the beach.
