About
Pediatrics is a very rewarding and engaging field to work in, and I am honored to be part of the Children's Wisconsin primary care family! From healthy checkups to sick visits in the office, I hope to help create a friendly environment for kids when they come to see their doctor. Earning a smile from a patient means so much. I am reminded every day of how blessed I am to have the opportunity to join families in helping their children to grow up safe and healthy.
My adventure toward a career in pediatrics started with medical school in Michigan, where I was born and raised. I then moved "out west" to Milwaukee for my pediatric residency training at Children's and in clinics throughout the community. I have since fallen in love with Wisconsin and am happy to be practicing here. What's not to love about the dairyland? My hobbies include baking (banana bread is my specialty), jogging by the lake, and cheering on the Admirals at hockey games.
