Areas of Interest: I love teaching medical students and residents as I strive to provide excellent care to all patients regardless of socioeconomic status or background. My practice primarily focuses on high-risk and surgical obstetrics, prevention and investigation of maternal mortality, women's health, resident wellness, as well as community health, prevention, and outreach. I currently assist medical students in the residency application process through a company called Residency Success, working with them on their application strategy, personal statements, and interview skills. In the past, I have volunteered on several medical missions to both Honduras and Ecuador. I hope to continue doing mission trips through global health initiatives at Cooper.
‚ÄãHobbies: When I'm not at work, I enjoy exercising, seeing live music and Broadway shows, photography, traveling, playing acoustic guitar, singing, and spending time with my family and friends. I also have two rescue cats who allow my husband and I to live with them.
Why am I passionate about Family Medicine? I grew up in a very small, rural community in northern New Jersey where one Family Medicine physician took care of everyone. I always admired his ability to make every patient feel as though their particular issue was his specialty, be it a tearful infant with a cough, an adult female struggling with a pregnancy issue, or an elderly male with hypertension. I find the challenge of interacting, building rapport, and caring for patients across different age groups to be emotionally and intellectually stimulating on a daily basis. Family Medicine also allows me to form long term relationships with my patients (and their families). I look forward to meeting you so we can work together to not only meet, but surpass your health goals!‚Äã
