Clinical Interests
I enjoy taking care of patients from childhood through adolescence for the care of injuries related to sports and other physical activities. I treat concussions, sprains/strains, joint injuries including dislocations, fractures, and overuse injuries. I also consult regarding the impact of medical conditions on sports participation and exercise.

Care Philosophy
My philosophy of care is a commitment to my patients and their families to deliver care that is supported by the highest order of compassion, innovation, science, and technology.

Personal Interests
I enjoy spending time outdoors with my husband and our dogs in the beautiful Colorado weather and scenery through snowshoeing, hiking, cycling and snowboarding.

Volunteer Activities
As a former collegiate soccer player, I enjoy staying connected to the game through my role as medical director for multiple area soccer clubs and team physician at the high school level.
