With a keen interest in health starting at a young age, she is fascinated by the intricacies involved with human body functioning. Her motivation to understand treatment and healing originated during her athletic pursuits, which ran from grade school through the collegiate level. Not only did she enjoy the ever-evolving education, but has always felt an intense need to assist her family and friends navigate their health issues and recovery. She has been blessed to have encountered several key mentors throughout her life, who have helped to encourage a constant curiosity in science and further solidify the importance of compassion with patients and their caregivers.
