How does your role allow you to make a special impact on the Public Safety groups? ​​

"Public safety roles come with unique challenges and can make an impact on mental health. My job is to treat each patient as a unique individual and to help identify the best medication regimen for that individual. My goal is to listen to my patients, provide empathy and improve their quality of life through appropriate treatment."​

​

Describe some unique strengths and expertise that allow you to overcome common challenges within your role.

"My time on sports teams drew me to the collaborative nature of healthcare. I want to be on a team with my patients and work together to find solutions and the best plan of action. I also strive to work with other colleagues on the public safety team because diverse minds are crucial to overcoming challenges or figuring out answers to questions. I want my patients to know they are not alone and I try to set that example as well."

What do you do for fun during your downtime?

"I have been a runner my whole life so I love to get outside and run. Exercising has always been my own way of taking care of my mental health. I also love to read, play the piano, travel and spend time with family and friends."
