My favorite part of practicing medicine is the relationship I build with my patients. I promote patient centered care by helping patients reach their health goals through prevention and healthy lifestyle changes. Outside of the office, I enjoy yoga, hiking, and traveling with my family.  I am also active in the community through my work with the Marion Polk Medical Society, volunteer work with hospice, and the University of Portland alumni association.
