Why did you become a doctor?
I found strength through helping others in need. I understand the importance between a patient’s behavioral and medical health and how one can impact the one another. I thoroughly enjoy seeing a patient grow through the therapeutic process.
What attracted you to a community health center for your practice?
I love the collaborative approach that you find in a community health center. Working together among different disciplines for the betterment of a patient is very rewarding.
Do you have hobbies or a way you like to spend your time away from work?
I am trained in numerous mindfulness approaches and practice meditation and yoga regularly. I am also an avid runner – even in the Arizona summer heat.
