Why did you become a healthcare provider?
I became a behavioral health specialist to serve my community. It was clear to me after working as a PA for a decade that there was a shortage of behavioral healthcare providers. I feel passionately about providing high quality care using evidence based medicine and compassion.
Do you have hobbies or a way you like to spend your time away from work?
I love yoga and good food. I tend to spend my spare time doing yoga and eating.
What do you enjoy or find most fulfilling about caring for patients?
I find it most fulfilling to work together with the patients to create and execute the care plan. I believe that every person has a unique path to wellness and strive to look at the individual and treat the whole person.
