Clinical Interest for Patients

Orthopaedic trauma, global health, the intersection of the humanities in healthcare

Care Philosophy

I am a Nurse Practitioner specializing in orthopaedic trauma care, and I am passionate about helping patients through some of the most difficult and unexpected times in their lives. I strive to provide compassionate, patient-centered care by listening closely to each patient’s concerns, understanding their goals, and helping make the recovery process feel more manageable. Orthopaedic trauma is especially meaningful to me because I have personally experienced a serious motor vehicle accident which has provided me a deeper understanding of the physical and emotional challenges that can come with injury and recovery, and it continues to shape the empathy and perspective I bring to my patients every day. I find it incredibly rewarding to support patients throughout their healing journey and to see them regain strength, mobility, and confidence. Outside of work, I enjoy yoga, strength training, spending time outdoors, and staying active through soccer and basketball.
