Hometown: Hartford, CT
I knew I wanted to become a doctor when: my father died of cancer when I was 10. It was then I decided that I wanted to become a physician, and I ultimately fell in love with the doctor-patient relationship.
Something I've learned from my patients is: that everyone has a story.
If I wasn't a doctor, I would be a: travel blogger and dancer.
One of the challenges of my career that I enjoy is: geriatric medicine and end-of-life care. While these conversations are sometimes difficult, it helps our aging population live their life cycle with dignity. I also enjoy adolescent medicine.
The best thing I've done for my health is: to do exercise that I love, which is walking and dancing. In addition to their health benefits, they are great stress relievers.
Practice philosophy: Comprehensive care. Helping patients become the healthiest version of themselves, physically and emotionally.
