Why PA? – I am passionate about medicine and serving people but also family is really important to me. Being a PA allows me to pursue my passion while still having a good work/life balance.
Why Dermatology? – I enjoy giving people suffering from mildly frustrating to completely debilitating skin diseases a sense of control and dignity, and for some even their life back. I also really enjoy the surgical and procedural aspect of dermatology as I find a lot of fulfillment removing both malignant and benign lesions that can be very troubling for people.
