What I Do
In my role as a family medicine physician, I take care of the whole family. I like getting to know the stories of my patients. That way, we can develop a care plan that will work for them so that their lives can be healthier and happier.
My clinical interests include mother and baby care, pediatrics and adult care.
Why I Love My Work
I love learning and helping people, which are constants in medicine. I especially enjoy seeing how a new baby brings joy to parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles.
Getting to Know Me
Growing up in a small town had a big impact on my career. I had the opportunity to work with my childhood family physician and clinic in high school and college. It was a great experience and exposure to rural family medicine.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family. My husband and girls are amazing. I love being a wife and mother. I also enjoy reading, watching movies and making meals. During the school year you can find me cheering on all the local student athletes.
