Maybe this will instill a memory for any millennials, but I loved Mall Madness as a younger kid.

My parents are my greatest inspiration. They worked very hard to instill in me a good work ethic and devotion to my education.

When I was 8 years old, my brother was born early and was in the NICU in Boston for several months. I spent a lot of time there and from then have always loved being around babies and kids.

I like working with patients and family to coordinate their care and help them navigate the health system. I feel that I can deliver information in an understandable way.
