About me

Radiology is a very high-tech field that is constantly evolving. As a medical physicist, I’m interested in both medicine and science. Much of my job is to be a communicator and problem-solver. My goal is to ensure that patients receive the best possible care by providing them with safe and effective imaging.

I have a drive to help people, and I enjoy applying my science background to improve lives. I find it very rewarding to know that I am the person behind the scenes, helping patients receive the best care.
