I believe empathy, curiosity, and a good sense of humor are a clinician’s best tools. I am on a mission to improve the quality of life of the patients I serve by honoring their lived experience, through health policy advocacy, and by applying best clinical evidence in their care. My specific clinical/ policy interests are aging services, geriatric medicine, palliative care and caregiver support programs. I also have a strong interest in healthcare innovation- notably healthcare IT, and efforts to address healthcare workforce development and retention. 
 I am looking forward to a career filled with learning and connecting with others.
