I chose to pursue a career in medicine as I saw it as a great opportunity to help others and form meaningful relationships with those I am able to serve. I also owe my inspiration to my mother, an exceptional registered nurse, who constantly showcased to me what impact one could make via a life of service and caring for others. There are many general principles that help guide the care we as healthcare providers deliver, but I'm a firm believer that the care we provide should be individualized to meet the specific needs for each patient. I strive to form partnerships with my patients and work toward care plans that best meet each individual's beliefs, preferences and needs. My clinical interests include: preventative medicine, adolescent/college health, musculoskeletal care, mental health and gender-affirming care. I treasure time to spend with my family - my amazing wife, three children and our dog. For better or worse, we cherish any opportunity to try new food, baked goods, and desserts. I enjoy anything that allows me to be outdoors and stay active.

I have always had the heart of a nurse and I truly love being a nurse! I chose to advance my education and become a Nurse Practitioner to provide compassionate, holistic and evidence-based care. I want to care for my patients the way I would want my own family cared for. My philosophy of care is that a balance of physical, mental and emotional health is the key to a long, happy and healthy life. All medications come with side effects. I use medications when necessary, but its important to remember the other components of wellness. When I'm not at work, I enjoy traveling, spending time with family and friends, singing, puzzles, cooking, and trying new foods.

I love learning, and being a doctor allows for a lifetime of learning! I really enjoy making a difference, and I feel privileged to be a part of the most intimate aspects of patients lives. I love taking care of entire families from birth onwards. I think of health as encompassing not only physical aspects, but also spiritual and emotional, and that really helps me care for patients as a whole. When I am not working, I love to run, spend time with my kids and husband, and travel.

My interest in family medicine originated growing up in a rural, agricultural area where the town doctor knew everyone he cared for, including their families, not just as patients, but as neighbors and friends as well. This background, and my interest in environmental science, led to my curiosity about how people's environment affects their health. I value the importance of prevention and strive to educate and encourage patients to incorporate such measures into their daily life, in spite of the ever-increasingly busy and sometimes challenging lives we lead. Building relationships with families across generations from birth into the elder years is most satisfying to me. When I am not delivering babies or in clinic, I enjoy knitting, running with my dog and other outdoor activities, namely keeping up with my two energetic, fun-loving girls.
