About me
Being diagnosed with allergies can feel overwhelming. I chose to work in allergy and immunology because I enjoy helping patients improve their quality of life. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and family-centered. My goal is to work together to find options that feel right for each patient and their family. We might discuss whether or not to bring a pet into the home or if it's safe to keep certain foods in the house.
Improving access to high-quality allergy care is important to me. I have helped develop home-based treatment programs to better support patients. One of my favorite parts of my work is guiding patients through food oral immunotherapy (OIT). Seeing patients move from small first steps to feeling more confident living with food allergies is very meaningful. I am grateful to be part of that journey and am here to support patients and their loved ones every step of the way.
