Q&A with Maria

What is your favorite animated movie or cartoon?

Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood and Bluey.

What is your favorite children's book and why?

The Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister. Being read to at night is a treasured memory of my childhood.

A white bear stuffed animal.

Who is your greatest inspiration and why?

My daughter. She inspires me to be the best version of myself everyday.

What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?

Reading, going on vacation with my family, exercising, and trying new restaurants.

What inspired you to work in pediatrics?

I’ve always enjoyed working with children, they’re more resilient than we can give them credit for. Being able to help them and make them laugh through the good and the bad inspires me everyday.
