I’m a pediatrician specializing in primary care pediatrics. I see children of all ages, but I especially like caring for newborns and helping families navigate the newborn period. My other areas of interest include screening for developmental delays, discussing vaccines and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) management.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve enjoyed caring for children. First, I was a babysitter and then a volunteer at camps for children, so naturally, I wanted to be in a career that focused on helping and caring for kids. I’ve also always been drawn to science, so being a pediatrician blended those two interests.
I'm deeply honored to help parents and guardians navigate the needs of their children. They want what is best for their child, and so do I. My goal is that during every visit, we develop the best plan for their child together. When the child is old enough, I love involving them in the discussion to make decisions about their health. Patients come to see us at vulnerable times in their lives. I want them to walk away knowing their pediatrician wants what is best for them and will help them make a plan to get there.
When I’m not at work, I love spending time with family and friends, running and being outside.
