"The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others." - Mahatma Gandhi; I'm an adult-gerontology acute care nurse practitioner practicing in hospital medicine, with clinical interests in cardiology, acute care for adult and geriatric patients. I am also a board-certified vascular access specialist.; My love for health care was inspired and grew because of moments in nursing when patients needed clearer explanations, stronger continuity of care or earlier intervention. I wanted the training and responsibility not only to understand the "why" behind medical decisions, but also to be directly accountable for the.; Each stage of my education and clinical training reinforced my passion for critical thinking, accountability and lifelong learning.
Philosophy of Care: My philosophy of care is grounded in accountable, evidence-based practice that respects patient dignity and supports informed decision-making. I prioritize clear, honest communication and focus on safety, quality of life and the best possible outcomes - especially for vulnerable and aging populations.
Favorite Parts of Medicine
Hobbies: Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, exercising and spending time outdoors playing with my dogs.
