About Me
I love working with children and families both inside and outside the emergency department. It’s profoundly fulfilling to comfort, treat and help children.
It's wonderful to be part of such a strong community, and I consider it a privilege to get to do what I do every day. I pride myself on being honest and direct. I'm skilled in caring for children, adolescents and young adults during critical health situations.
I have deep empathy for everyone who comes to the emergency department, and I genuinely enjoy guiding families and children through some of their most challenging times.
It’s profoundly fulfilling to comfort, treat and help children.
