(She/hers) Hello everyone! I grew up on a farm in Western Massachusetts with my parents, two younger brothers, and many turkeys, sheep, pigs, ducks, chickens, cats, dogs...it was a great adventure. After studying neuroscience at Skidmore College (Creative Thought Matters) in upstate New York, I moved to Pittsburgh to be closer to my now husband and worked in adolescent mental health and for a non-profit crisis nursery and finished my pre-reqs at a post-bac program. I was granted the privilege of attending medical school at the University of Pittsburgh (first generation!), where I discovered the field of family medicine and continued my community advocacy and service work. I'm very grateful for my residency training here at URMC Family Medicine where I completed the P.A.L.T. and Maternal-Child Health areas of concentration and made lifelong friends and mentors. I'm honored to be a program Chief and FM Instructor this year as it allows me to do what I love most---take care of families and take care of residents! My clinical passions include maternal-child health, substance use disorder treatment, and patient advocacy. When I'm home, I love to spend time with my husband and our kiddos (both human and fur babies!) as well as our family and friends.
