I am passionate about: staying healthy! Eating wisely and exercising daily keeps me feeling energetic, happy and eager to help others!
A fun fact about me is: that I play trumpet.
My favorite memory is: practicing medicine in Norway. I learned so much, had loads of fun with my family and made wonderful friends and memories.
If I wasn’t a doctor, I would be a: teacher or a band director. I could combine by love of music with a passion for teaching others and helping them grow.
I became a doctor because: I love both the art and science of medicine – the science challenges me to continually learn, evaluate and make decisions. The art connects me to people – with their feelings, experiences, and relationships. The combination is both challenging and rewarding.
One of the challenges of this career that I enjoy is: learning something new every day. Learning and growing is nourishing and invigorating.
The best thing I have done for my health is: buying a new bike. I ride 20-40 miles several times per week. This has improved endurance and strength, decreased my blood pressure and cholesterol, and allowed me to enjoy the outdoors in an active way.
