What are you passionate about and why? I am passionate about self care. The best way to take care of others is to take care of oneself.
If you weren't a health care provider, what would you be? I’d either be the commissioner of the NFL or the General Manager for the Green Bay Packers.
Why did you become a provider? When did you know this was the career for you? I became a Nurse Practitioner so I could provide a holistic approach to the care I delivered to my patients.

What is the best thing you've done for your health or the best health advice you've received? Self-care is the best thing I’ve done for my overall health. This comes in many forms including, weight lifting, cardio, sleep, good food, and keeping great friends.
