She is passionate about patient education, clinical efficiency, and lifelong learning. Her philosophy is to never stop at “I don’t know,” but instead to use that as the starting point for growth.

She enjoys helping others develop confidence, recognize what they do not yet know, and learn how to move forward with the right tools and resources.
