Tell us about your basic philosophy and greatest pleasure in practicing pediatrics and adolescent medicine.

I chose Pediatrics because it allows me to work not only with the patient but with their family. Additionally, it gives me the ability to provide crucial support that can potentially reshape a family’s future. A large focus of my conversation with parents is based on preventative care, including immunizations, nutrition and childhood/adolescent safety.

Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, cooking, baking and spending time with my husband and children.
