I love to watch Toy Story with my kids. So fun to see the toys we love to play with come to life!

"Tickle Monster" is a favorite in our house. My daughter loves it because she gets tickled after each page and it creates a lot of laughter!

I always loved the Easy Bake Oven, which is funny because now days I will do anything to avoid cooking.

My greatest inspiration is my own children. They have given me a deeper understanding of the importance of compassionate, knowledgeable care and the impact it has not just on kids, but on the entire family.

I love to spend time with my husband and our two children. We love swimming, going on bike rides to the park, having picnics, anything to get outside (when it isn't too hot, of course!).

I've always loved working with children. They bring so much energy, curiosity and joy into every interaction. As a parent myself, I understand how important it is to keep kids healthy and that perspective has deepened my passion for pediatric care. Being able to support families and promote wellness from an early age is incredibly rewarding. Plus, kids are so fun to be around, they keep me smiling everyday and loving what I do daily.

Clear and compassionate communication is at the heart of how I practice. I make sure families feel heard, informed and supported every step of the way. I work hard to create a welcoming environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident in the care their child is receiving.
