About

Philosophy of care

I am committed to helping you to the best of my ability. I show my patients compassion and empathy as we work together to treat chronic rheumatic conditions.

Why I entered medicine

I have multiple family members in the healthcare field. Their hard work and dedication inspired me to pursue medicine and help others.

Community involvement

I believe it is important to give back to the local community as well as national charities. Locally, I have been supportive of The Children's Home of Easton and the Cancer Support Community of the Greater Lehigh Valley. I also have contributed to national organizations such as the American Heart Association, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the Lupus Foundation of America.

Personal interests

Outside work I enjoy spending time with my family and traveling.
