Summary

  • I've been fortunate enough to work in a wide variety of settings ranging from volunteering abroad to working as a hospitalist, working in clinics serving immigrant communities, school-based health clinics, integrative practices and more typical primary care practices. My professional interests include health equity, food as medicine, environmental health and the mind-body connection. I'm committed to holistic healing and fostering a collaborative relationship with the families I work with. Now that I'm a mother to my toddler son I'm particularly interested in exploring remote/ flexible opportunities with telehealth and digital health companies.
