    Biography

    What I Do

    My philosophy of care begins with being an active listener and partnering with patients to deliver the highest quality of care. I take into consideration patients as a whole, both physically and mentally, when creating unique treatment plans.

    My clinical interests include acute care, urgent care, procedures, rural health care and women's health.

    Why I Love My Work

    Within my job, no two days are the same. Each day provides opportunities to teach my patients and to learn from them. I enjoy making the connection between textbook knowledge and the findings from a physical exam. Doing so deepens my understanding of illness and disease processes. I also like to enhance my procedural skills with the latest techniques to provide a foundation for positive outcomes.

    Getting to Know Me

    I am passionate about rural health care and ensuring comprehensive and preventive services are accessible to all. I chose family medicine because I wanted to care for people across their lifespan while working with them to prevent and manage a broad spectrum of illnesses.

    Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughter, gardening, practicing yoga, walking, traveling and spending time on the water, whether it be swimming, kayaking, fishing or boating.
