I am passionate about: working to address health care disparities in urban and underserved populations. I am also passionate about women's health and contraceptive management because when women do well, we all do well.
If I wasn't a physician, I would be a: food critic, artist, comedian or ecologist.
My favorite travel destination: is Ecuador. I had the privilege of spending six weeks exploring the country in medical school and was so impressed with the generosity of the people, the geography, the food and the culture.
Something my patients have taught me: That there is something I can learn from every patient that helps to make me a better physician.
One challenge of this career that I enjoy is: helping patients feel empowered about their health, because when you help people to be invested it is incredible to see what can be accomplished.
My personal health goal: to exercise regularly.
I became a physician because: I found it was the best way that I could use my skills to help improve people's lives. I have wanted to be a physician for as long as I can remember.
