Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner
Why do you love working in women’s health?
While I have always had an interest in women's health, I became passionate about specializing in this field because of my personal journey with a rare gynecologic diagnosis. While trying to navigate this diagnosis, I experienced, firsthand, the significant gaps in women's healthcare. This experience ignited a fire within me to not only manage my own condition, but also to advocate for and support others facing the challenges of gynecologic conditions. After completing my thesis topic on dysmenorrhea, it became very clear that there was a pressing need for more comprehensive and innovative care in gynecology across a lifespan. My fascination and expertise in hormones and menopause care stems from a desire to empower my patients through every stage of their reproductive health journey. I love watching my patients live their most fulfilled, joyful, and optimal lives once they receive the care they need, and am honored to be part of their care team!
What do you do outside of work?
You can often find me hiking with my dog, backcountry skiing, mountain biking, dancing, and baking for friends and family.
