I chose to become a nurse practitioner because I value advocating for the best care of my patients. As a nurse practitioner, I enjoy partnering with my patients to find what their health concerns, goals, and outcomes are and align my treatments to support their development. I love pediatric neurology and strive to care for individuals with epilepsy and cognitive delays. When I’m not working, I cherish time with my family, being outdoors, and writing or reading.
