About Me

I find it very rewarding to apply my love of science to people's care. I'm very fortunate to combine my work as a health care provider with my work as a teacher and researcher.

I enjoy meeting different people and tailoring my approach to their care based on their unique personalities and specific needs.

My favorite leisure activity is spending the day hiking in the mountains with my family and dogs. I'm also an avid rower, love sailing and enjoy backcountry skiing.

I have always loved math, physics and teaching, so I would have been a high school physics teacher if I hadn't pursued medicine. Alternatively, I might also have been an astronomer, as I have always been fascinated by the universe.

I enjoy meeting different people and tailoring my approach to their care based on their unique personalities and specific needs.
