What are you passionate about and why? I am passionate about my work, family, and my future. They create purpose in life, give me joy, and help make me the best version of myself.
If you weren't a health care provider, what would you be? A world traveler with a traveling blog.
Why did you become a provider? When did you know this was the career for you? I knew this was my calling when I was in High School helping provide preventative health education to my peers. I knew my career goal would to help spread that preventative health to a larger community.
What is something you have learned from your patients? How to implement compassion instead of just feeling compassionate. We see patients when they feel at their worst, then see them find the joy in life despite life circumstances.
What is one of the challenges of this career you enjoy? And why? The constant unknown. I'm always learning and constantly improving myself and medical knowledge. This allows for tremendous personal and profession growth leading to being a better physician.
What is your personal health goal? My personal health goal is to be the more healthy version of myself both physically and mentally.
What is the best thing you've done for your health or the best health advice you've received? The best things for my health include a personal trainer and healthy eating habits. If you are not the healthiest version of yourself how will you help others.
What are you most proud of? My nephews for being the cutest.
What are a few of your personal achievements? Personal achievements include recent discovery of solo travel and being the best aunt possible.
