I grew up in a small town in the mountains of north central Pennsylvania. With my love for the sciences and the art of medicine I knew I wanted to be in the healthcare field. I obtained my bachelors degree in health sciences and then completed my masters in physician assistant studies at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2016. After working for some years in the field I realized that conventional western medicine alone was not meeting my expectations for helping patients. My patients were not truly healing. This led me to my journey in integrative medicine.

 

In February 2023 I completed a fellowship in integrative medicine through the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine out of the University of Arizona. Integrative medicine is medicine that focuses on healing & treating the root cause. It takes into account the whole person including mind, body, spirit, emotions, & external environment, lifestyle. My passion is to be able to develop meaningful relationships with patients where I can partner with them on their journey of healing through all stages of life. I like to empower patients to take back control of their health. I choose interventions that are safe, effective, natural, and least invasive whenever possible. I have a special interest in Women’s Health. 

 Outside of the office my favorite thing to do is spend time with my husband and our daughter, along with our pup, family, and friends. I enjoy all things outdoors and in nature. Hiking, swimming, meditating, gardening, traveling, and reading are all things that bring me joy.
