I love talking through patients’ medical concerns with them, and finding a solution to their medical issues while providing support during what can be very taxing times. I listen to patients’ medical concerns, order appropriate tests and imaging to help identify a diagnosis, and carefully create a treatment plan that provides the best outcome for my patients.

If you can’t find me at the hospital, I’m likely on the lake – in sunshine or snow! I love to fish (including ice fishing) and can frequently be found on the water in my own boat, or on fishing excursions with my husband, Jeremy. We love spending time fishing at our cabin in Osakis, MN, and our dog Brutus loves it too!
