My two favorites would be The Little Mermaid and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

Frog and Toad Are Friends. My sister and I used to read the series as children.

I loved board games and jump rope as a child.

My parents. They led by example and modeled the values of perseverance, honesty, faith, and importance of education.

I enjoy music, reading, and spending time with my family.

I was interested in the field of Medicine from a young age. I have enjoyed working with children and Pediatrics was the right fit for me.

I love what I do. The best parts of my days are the few moments spent face to face with each of my patients and their families. I get to help people take care of their most precious gift, their child. The significance of that is never lost on me. It is a privilege. I strive to treat my patients with respect, to be thorough and listen to them carefully.
