About Me

Biography

When away from work, I enjoy cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs and Saint Louis Cardinals, running, reading and doing interior design.

Care Philosophy

Much of what drew me to pulmonary and critical care medicine was as a young girl seeing my grandfather succumb to COPD and lung cancer. I felt I could be part of changing medicine in a way that impacts patients for the better. Providing compassion, communication and collaboration is vital in my role as a physician.

Area of Interest

I enjoy all aspects of this field, including asthma, COPD, interstitial lung and pulmonary diseases, and pulmonary hypertension.
