My favorite children's book is The Phantom Tollbooth because it is fun, funny, and makes you think.

Running, craft activities, and reading.

I am a pediatric nurse practitioner because I’m passionate about helping children grow up healthy and confident, and I want to support both kids and their families during some of the most important moments of their lives.

What sets me apart is my ability to build genuine, trusting relationships with both children and their families. Parents feel comfortable with me because I take the time to truly listen to their concerns and answer questions thoroughly. I connect easily with children by being patient, warm, and attentive, which helps them feel safe and understood. By combining strong communication skills with empathy and a family-centered approach, I create a positive rapport that supports both the child’s health and the family’s peace of mind.
