Why did you choose a career in medicine?

My father is a neurosurgical PA, and I was interested in surgery from an early age. Once I started volunteering in the hospital, it felt like a natural career path for me. My interest in surgery, specifically head and neck surgery, came into fruition during medical school. It's a fulfilling career where you are constantly learning, honing your surgical skills, and connecting with people on a very personal level. It is very empowering when your dedication and training allow others to put their trust in you, knowing that you bring your best every day.

Rhinoplasty, septoplasty, sinus surgery, and facial aging procedures such as facelifts and neck lifts.

Goals that you have either personally, professionally or both

Personally, I have a young son for whom I want to create wonderful experiences and educational opportunities.

I look forward to starting my professional career in Palm Springs, CA.

Most influential mentor you've worked with

During residency, my mentor was Dr. Merry Sebelik, an endocrine surgeon. She is an incredible surgeon and mother who performs thyroid surgeries during international mission trips and demonstrates seamless leadership.
