About Me:
I decided to become a radiologist very early during medical school, as soon as I understood the importance of an accurate diagnosis for the best possible patient outcome. I'm subspecialized in Neuroradiology but love to practice in nearly all subspecialties.
Radiology is a very exciting field in medicine that gives you the unique ability to visualize and understand the patient's anatomy and disease processes. It can be an overwhelming responsibility, but it feels wonderful to contribute to patient care, providing vital information to guide treatment. It is such a rewarding career!
Outside work, I love being with my family and friends. We enjoy being outside, going for walks or bike rides, and watching movies on cold days!
