Professional Specialties/Passions
I am especially passionate about prenatal care, contraceptive counseling, and empowering adolescents. My goal is to support and educate my patients, so they feel confident and in control of their health decisions—however that looks for them.
Personal Points
Why do you love what you do?
I’m passionate about empowering my patients so they feel informed, confident, and in control of their bodies and choices. I also value the trust my patients place in me and feel privileged to care for women during some of the most important and vulnerable moments in their lives.
Why did you choose Essex County OB/GYN?
Serving patients within my local community has always been important to me. I have felt welcomed and supported by every member of Essex County’s care team. It’s a group of providers who know when to be serious and when to bring lightness to the day—a balance I deeply appreciate.
