I have spent the last decade caring for patients in the hospital and walking alongside individuals and families during some of life’s most challenging moments. Along the way, I’ve learned that great medical care isn’t just about treatments and tests—it’s about listening, clarity, and showing up with compassion.

My work in hospice and palliative care is driven by a strong belief in patient safety, advocacy, and honest, clear communication. I strive to make complex medical situations easier to understand and to help patients and families feel supported, heard, and empowered in their decisions.

I bring a calm, compassionate presence to my visits and focus on what matters most to each person—not just medically, but personally. Building trust and meaningful connection is at the heart of how I practice.

When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, traveling, and getting lost in a good book.
