What I Do

I am a family nurse practitioner with a Certificate of Training in Obesity Interventions for Adults from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

My approach to care centers on the phrase “Listen with the ear of your heart” from the Rule of Saint Benedict, which was instilled in me during nursing school. It is a beautiful passage that requires deeper listening, having empathy and being compassionate.

My clinical interests include working with patients throughout their lifespan, health promotion and prevention of chronic diseases.

Why I Love My Work

My love for food and interest in nutrition started my health care journey and continues to be a foundation in my practice. I am motivated by seeing how improving nutrition and lifestyle can prevent chronic diseases. I enjoy working one-on-one with patients to find ways to improve their health.

Getting to Know Me

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and most things outdoors such as paddle boarding, hiking, cross-country skiing and running.
