Philosophy:
I have a passion for life and enjoy taking care of patients with complex problems; 'I'm living the dream'. My focus is on providing exceptional -cutting edge-patient centered care. My parents taught me the importance of honesty, compassion, and to strive for excellence. As an officer, I learned the importance of service, dedication, and commitment to a larger cause. I was blessed with the opportunity to learn from great leaders in my field. I'm fortunate to work at a leading thoracic program.
