    Biography

    What I Do
    My philosophy of care involves a team approach to working through endocrine problems. Together with a patient, we look at all options and decide the best plan forward. My special clinical interests include osteoporosis, thyroid disease, bone and mineral disorders, diabetes, pituitary disorders and lipid disorders. I find hormones interesting, especially looking at feedback loops and using science to fix what isn’t quite right.

    Why I Love My Work
    I enjoy seeing patients gain control of a problem and living their best lives. I want patients to know that I will always do my best for them so they can achieve the best version of themselves.

    Getting to Know Me
    Outside of work, I enjoy biking, hiking, kayaking and gardening. Central Minnesota offers four wonderful seasons and allows me to be outdoors and to enjoy the beauty all around me.
