I decided to pursue a career in the medical field after being inspired at an early age by my grandfather, who was a Pulmonologist and Internal Medicine provider during the 1930s and 1940s. I admire his sacrifice and commitment to the medical field before antibiotics were available. He taught me the importance of listening to patients and hearing out their concerns as we work to diagnose and treat their conditions.

When I’m not seeing patients, you can often find me cheering on my children as they play hockey and lacrosse. My family lives near Northfield and has several pets, including four dogs, one cat, twelve chickens, and two horses. I also enjoy horseback riding, skiing, and photography.
