A bit about me...
What nurse practitioner school did you graduate from?
- Villanova University
What medical / nurse practitioner school did you graduate from?
- University of Pennsylvania
Why did you choose a career in medicine?
- I always wanted to do a job that helped make other people feel better. I love that at the end of my work day as a medical professional, I always feel like I tangibly helped make someone's day a little better or easier.
If you hadn't pursued a medical career, what other career / profession would you have chosen and why?
- My mom is a kindergarten teacher and I always played teacher and pretended to be just like her when I was a child growing up! If I wasn't working with children in a medical capacity, I probably would have been a teacher.
Why did you choose PCG?
- I love that PCG is a small practice where I feel connected to my coworkers and the mission of the practice.

Favorite pro / college sports team?
