Treatment philosophy: “I believe in providing compassionate, evidence-based care that is customized to meet the unique needs of each child. Building strong relationships with families is a priority, ensuring that children feel at ease and parents/caregivers feel supported. With a focus on health promotion, disease prevention, and open communication, I am committed to creating a positive healthcare experience for both the child and their family”

Special interests: “The most rewarding part of my job is building connections with families and seeing their children flourish and thrive.”

Professional journey: “From a young age, I’ve always had a passion for helping those that were younger than me. Even in adolescence, I’d try to help others to feel their best and live life to the fullest, mostly through an active lifestyle and laughter. After more than 16 years in healthcare, with a special focus on pediatrics throughout, I truly believe this is the path I was always meant to follow.”

“When I’m not treating my patients I enjoy… Spending time with family and watching my two sons play baseball and hockey. I also enjoy lots of outdoor activities, including hiking, fishing and camping.”
