My son really loves dinosaurs, and I enjoy watching Jurassic Park with him!

My current favorite children's book is Press Here by Hervé Tullet. This is such a fun book to read with my boys! My favorite book as a child was Stella Luna.

I have always loved caring for things. My favorite childhood toys were my American Girl Doll and Bitty Baby.

My parents. They have overcome many obstacles in their personal and professional lives and have shown me the greatest example of being a lifetime learner. You are never too old to learn new things!

My hobbies outside of work center around my family. I love to spend time with my husband and two boys (Leo and Luca). I love doing anything outdoors. I feel the most relaxed in nature. I love to hike, go boating, gardening, exercising, traveling, and music.

I have always been passionate about health education and pediatrics allowed me to do this for my patient's starting from birth! I truly love providing my patients and families the knowledge they need to feel empowered regarding their health!

I think empathy in healthcare and life is very important. I am a mother myself, so I can relate to parents on a personal level. I strive to streamline information in an understandable language so my patients and their caregivers can make the best-informed medical decisions for their unique situations.

I love to work with patients with special needs. I carry portable equipment, so I can perform an exam wherever the patient is comfortable. That may be on the exam table, or in their parent's arms!
