A little about me
I grew up in Buffalo, NY (Go Bills!) and moved to New York City in 2019. In my free time I like to spend time with my partner and friends, go to cycling and yoga classes, read and spend time in nature. I also am active in local advocacy groups and political organizations.
Why I love my job
I went into family medicine because I am passionate about helping people realize and achieve their health goals. I love developing trusting and collaborative relationships with my patients that allows me to use my medical expertise to address each individual’s needs. My training and integrative medicine and acupuncture give me additional ways I can help my patients.
