About me

I chose a career in medicine because I wanted to have a meaningful purpose. My specialty is neuroradiology, with a focus on children's neuroradiology. I thoroughly enjoy caring for these brave children.

Patients and their families notice when I listen to their medical and personal stories. I see each patient as a whole person and not just another patient or task.

I appreciate our patients’ trust in our team. I don't take it for granted that they have chosen us for their care. We treat our patients as we would our own families. I am always happy to help my patients understand their condition, care, or procedure.

My goal is to help physicians and practitioners find the safest and most convenient next step in our patients’ care. Knowing that I made a meaningful difference for a patient is the most rewarding thing about my job.
