Hometown: Detroit Lakes, MN
Practice Philosophy: I believe it is important to balance medical treatment with quality of life. I strive to provide my patients with the most compassionate and up-to-date medical care possible.
Best part of my work: I enjoy finding out how a patient’s medical concerns affect their quality of life and how we can work together to make them better.
I became a provider because: I spend several years working as a nurses aide in a nursing home and wanted to do more to help patients.
What I tell friends and family: Diet and exercise are so important. The choices you make now can affect you later
How I spend my free time: Running, hiking, kayaking and traveling with my husband. I also enjoy spending my time with my four children and pug named Murray.
If I wasn't a provider, I would be a: nursing home activities director because I enjoy party planning.
What patients say about me: I take time to listen and answer all their questions.
