Hometown: Minneapolis, MN
Best part of my work: Sharing the excitement and joy of welcoming a new baby into the world. I also enjoy helping women to resume their lives quickly and with less pain by providing minimally invasive gynecological surgeries.
Why I became a provider: I chose obstetrics and gynecology specifically because I wanted to help women become more knowledgeable about their bodies.
I believe that having information and understanding our bodies can help us make healthier choices, reduces our fears and facilitates healing. A healthy mind and body allows us to fully realize our potential as human beings.
What I tell friends and family: Don't smoke. It's incredibly damaging to your health.

Favorite health tip: Moderation in all things.
Practice philosophy: To provide the highest quality obstetric and gynecologic care in a warm and caring manner to all women.
