I’ve always known I wanted to work with children in health care. Pediatrics allows me to bring together my passion for science and caring for others every day. I feel honored to support children as they grow, and I truly value partnering with families along the way. My goal is to help parents feel confident and prepared to care for their child after each visit.
My approach is family-centered. I believe every family is different, so I take time to listen and understand your concerns. I share clear, evidence-based information and work with you to make decisions together. I focus on creating care plans that reflect your child’s needs and your family’s goals.
I am a board-certified pediatric nurse practitioner and certified pediatric nurse. I am also a certified breastfeeding specialist and registered yoga teacher.
My clinical interests include:
- Pediatric primary and preventive care
- Supporting breastfeeding success
- Addressing social factors that impact health
- Improving maternal and infant outcomes
- Children’s yoga and mindfulness
I have experience caring for children in primary care, urgent care, newborn nursery and telehealth settings. I care for a wide range of needs, from routine visits to more complex conditions, always with a focus on clear communication and thoughtfulness.
I’m also active in my community and professional organizations. I have served in leadership roles with a local pediatric nurse practitioner organization, and I’ve helped lead community service and advocacy efforts. I also support wellness programs for children through yoga and mindfulness work.
In my leisure time, I enjoy reading, crafting, yoga, traveling and group fitness classes. I’m married with children, and spending time with my family is one of the most meaningful parts of my life.
I look forward to getting to know you and supporting your child’s health, every step of the way.
