LENGTH OF TIME AT THE CENTER FOR HEALTHY LIVING
I’m new to CHL as of August 28, 2023. My previous employment experiences include interventional pain management (2015–22) and home-based medical care, palliative, primary care (2022–23).

WHY DO YOU LIKE WORKING AT THE CENTER FOR HEALTHY LIVING?
I am excited to provide care to a diverse population, from young to old. I love to teach, but, most importantly, I love to listen to my patients and problem solve.

PHILOSOPHY OF CARE
I believe today’s healthcare, and tomorrow’s, needs to be patient-family focused. The best-made plans will fall short if we don’t take the time to listen and understand not just our patient’s health issues, but also their social, economical, and cultural needs as well.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO WHEN YOU’RE NOT SEEING PATIENTS?
I love spending time with my three adult children, my son-in-law, and new granddaughter! I also enjoy my two rescue dogs, Daisy and Blue; two rescue cats, Snickers and Goose; and my horse, Belle.  

FUN FACT
I am one of triplet girls.
