I enjoy working with kids and young adults. Prior to my Physician Assistant studies and training, I was a high school biology teacher and dealt with behavioral health issues in a different setting. A career in medicine carries the unique opportunity to help others through physical and emotional ailments with communication and commitment. I believe in treating every patient with an individualized and empathetic approach, supported by evidence-based practical measures that lead to the best outcome for their life.
