Legos, Atari video games such as Ms. Pac Man and Donkey Kong

Who is your greatest inspiration and why?

My parents because they overcame much adversity and challenges to survive and raise their family in a foreign country. They taught me that life is easier when you go through it with others.

What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?

raising my guinea pigs, drawing, clay figure making, visiting nature

What inspired you to work in pediatrics?

I enjoy learning about human development and families, which was my major in college. I love working with children and supporting their wellness journey, focusing on the whole child ( emotional, physical and social). I want to help families manage their children's chronic illnesses and fight disease.

What unique qualities, skills, or services set you apart, and how do you build a positive rapport with patients and their families?

I aspire to give each family my full attention during their visits with me and provide compassionate care with the best current practices we have in the field of Pediatrics
