My main priority in practice is to guide my patients safely through childhood into adulthood, and to see my patients outgrow and outlive my period of expertise. Great health starts at the beginning of life, and I want to be an advocate at the forefront of pediatric care to build that strong foundation for families. While I embrace the joys of pediatric care, my past experiences as a nurse in the NICU have also helped shaped my practice. Now, as a PNP, I plan to bridge the gap between medicine and interpersonal relationships, utilizing a holistic approach to improve patient outcomes and to build strong patient relationships.
