Professional Philosophy
I enjoy a "hybridized" practice as a Family Nurse Practitioner and the center's in-house Registered Dietician.  I firmly believe that food is medicine and I am passionate about bringing the discussion of nutrition into the exam room.  My professional goal is to assist my patients in the prevention and management of chronic illness through nutritional health.
