Personal Interests
I enjoy spending time with my family, running, outdoor activities and trying different ethnic foods.
Philosophy of Care
Collaboration and empowerment are my foundations in providing care to my adult and pediatric populations.
Pediatric nutrition always has a place in my heart. As a mother of two boys, providing proper nutrition without placing too much pressure on kids can always be a challenging task. I am here to help you in this journey.
Due to my strong family history of type 2 diabetes, I truly believe diabetes education is crucial to getting on the right pathway for lowering the risks of complications from diabetes.
