About Me

I was inspired by my childhood nurse practitioner to pursue a nursing career and to provide comprehensive and empathetic care to my patients.

I enjoy working in radiation oncology as it allows for the formation of long-term relationships between patients and providers. I aim to collaborate with patients and families to help them achieve their goals as much as possible.

In my free time, I love to be outside — running, hiking, biking and skiing.

    Rachel Rudder was very nice, but upon reading her notes about the visit she referred to me as "they" and "them". This is very bizarre as there was only one of me at the visit, and I am a "she".
