Clinical Interests
While I have a broad range of clinical interests, I am most passionate about patient-centered care that considers the entire individual from their personal lives and unique backgrounds to their specific medical needs. I am also very interested in medical teaching and global health.

Care Philosophy
I enjoy interacting with individuals from a variety of social and cultural backgrounds and fostering personalized care. My goal is to help patients prioritize their own personal values during times of difficult decision making.

Personal Interests
Outside of work, I love to spend as much time as possible outdoors hiking, camping, and running. I also enjoy live music events, playing the violin, cooking, knitting and reading.
