Who is your greatest inspiration and why?
My parents. Their continuous support and love inspired me to reach all of my academic goals
What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?
Spending time with my family, traveling and reading
What inspired you to work in pediatrics?
My love for children and watching them grow and learn at each milestone. Not many specialties allow you to see the growth of children. It’s also rewarding to see the positive impact you make on their health and over well being.
What unique qualities, skills, or services set you apart, and how do you build a positive rapport with patients and their families?
I bring a blend of strong clinical expertise and compassionate, family-centered care. My background in both pediatric primary care and obstetrics allows me to approach patients with a broad perspective, anticipating needs across the lifespan.
I am transparent with my patients and families and I build trust by listening attentively, respecting cultural and personal values, and communicating in clear, reassuring language.
