I had close family members with chronic illnesses growing up and being around the healthcare system a lot from the perspective of a patient or family member inspired me to provide that same care one day. My goal is to meet patients and families where they are and to hopefully be an extra layer of support as they are undergoing cancer-directed treatment or dealing with chronic diseases and to walk the journey with them. I strive to provided evidence-based medicine while using shared-decision making with my patients and their families to decide the appropriate treatment while also aligning with their goals. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, watching and playing sports, getting outside for activities and cooking.
