About us

Since I was very young, I have enjoyed learning about health and nutrition, and I have always loved helping people. Medicine was a logical career choice, and it's a career that I would choose again today. It allows me to meet new people, listen to their problems, and help them be and feel the best versions of themselves. I've been working in the gastroenterology specialty since 2009. I have been fortunate to work with many different physicians and have learned so much from them all. I feel one of my best qualities as a healthcare provider is the ability to make patients feel comfortable when discussing their health. Often, it is difficult to talk about GI issues, but I work to ask the right questions so those conversations are as easy as possible for those in my care. My wonderful husband and our three children fill much of my time away from work. We have a menagerie of pets: two doodles, a rabbit, a cat and a fish tank full of guppies. As our children get older, we treasure time together when we can get it. We enjoy traveling as a family, whether we are camping locally or exploring farther from home. I am nearly always up for spending time outdoors; I enjoy long walks, hiking, paddle boarding, and sitting on my porch with a warm cup of coffee and my dogs.
