Philosophy
I have the great privilege of advocating for patients who are diagnosed with lung cancer. What drives me is tailoring a unique plan of care for each individual I work with. This allows our team to better serve patients as they deal with their lung cancer diagnosis, treatment and survivorship goals. The greatest gift I can give my patients is to listen and address their individual needs. This profound interaction is life-changing.
Personal
I love spending time with my family, especially my grandchildren. After work you will often find me in my favorite pajamas reading or knitting. I adore coffee and my hairdresser. I also enjoy gardening, biking, and yoga.
