“Watching families grow and celebrating milestones along the way is the best part of pediatrics for me. I want to be a person families can lean on when things are hard whether it’s a tough diagnosis, a season of crisis or just navigating newborn exhaustion, the terrific twos and tween/ teen years. I truly feel I was born to do this work and am so fortunate to be living my dream.”
