Most people don't know: that I once competed in the Illinois morel mushroom hunting state championships! I grew up on a farm that had an apple orchard and a pumpkin patch.
If I wasn't a doctor, I would be a: national park ranger. I love the outdoors and education.
I became a doctor because: I enjoy sharing in people's stories.
One of the things I have learned from my patients is: that each patient is capable of taking steps to improve his or her health when they are motivated with information that fits his or her individual goals.
My personal health goal is: to complete a triathlon.
The best thing I have done for my health is: combining exercise with a community that is supportive. This keeps me motivated to reach my goals.
I am most proud of: completing medical training while raising two children.
One of my favorite personal achievements is: running several marathons and other endurance events to raise money for clean water in East Africa.
