About Me

I enjoy getting to know my patients and their families as we work together to create a plan for health and wellness that fits their unique lifestyles and personalities.

I believe there are many ways to live a healthy and fulfilling life. My role is the most rewarding when I partner with patients and families to share my knowledge in a way that helps patients find their own path to health.

I understand that family, culture and society influence health. As a health care provider, it is essential that I understand the unique background of each of my patients to deliver effective and empathic care.

I enjoy patients of all ages, from infants to toddlers to teenagers. Special interests include trauma-informed care for children and parents, mental health care and helping teens transition to adulthood.

As a lifelong Vermonter, I appreciate how life in Vermont can provide wonderful opportunities for health and wellness. However, I also understand that there are significant barriers for many Vermonters, and I seek to help my families access the best opportunities available in our local communities.

When I'm not at work, I enjoy exploring the dirt roads, hiking trails, rivers and lakes in our area, and spending time at home and adventuring around New England and beyond with my family. 

I seek to help my families access the best opportunities available in our local communities.
