Personal Statement

Children are fun, courageous, resilient and so loving. I treat my patients with the care and compassion that I expect for my own children.

Bio

She loves working in pediatric cardiology because each patient is different and every day brings new challenges and rewards. She feels privileged to be able to make a difference in the lives of children at CHKD.
