ABOUT ME
I am a physician assistant with a background in both research and patient care. Before entering clinical practice, I earned my PhD in experimental psychology with a focus on traumatic brain injury. That experience shaped how I approach medicine today. I value thoughtful, evidence-based care and take time to understand each patient’s individual needs. My goal is to make patients feel comfortable, informed, and supported throughout their care.
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
I have experience caring for patients in a variety of clinical settings, including both inpatient and outpatient care. I have worked with diverse patient populations and am comfortable managing a wide range of medical concerns while collaborating closely with the healthcare team.
FAVORITE ACTIVITY OUTSIDE OF WORK
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family, traveling, finding great restaurants wherever I go, and occasionally binge watching a show with my husband.
WHAT WILL MAKE YOU A GREAT PROVIDER?
I focus on listening closely, explaining things clearly, and helping patients feel at ease. I strive to provide care that is thoughtful, thorough, and tailored to each individual.
