Biographical Info

I grew up in Michigan and graduated from the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor GO BLUE! It was at Michigan where I became interested in public health and decided to get my Master’s of Public Health degree in Community Health. I went to the University of Illinois College of Medicine with a passion for working hands-on in the community. As a physician I get the pleasure of working within the community to help make an impact on health disparities by addressing population and individual health. I am so excited about being at UIH as a Family Medicine Physician. It is my hope to continue advocating for injustices, the underserved, and quality and equitable health care for all.

In my spare time I love being with my family, walking on the lakefront, and cooking or baking something delicious to share with family or friends.
