Tell us what makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider. I believe in changing lives and working on key prevention to allow the individuals I treat to live a better and fuller life. Seeing new advances that allow us to reach a wider population with limited access and to bridge healthcare disparities is a big driver for me! In your opinion, what should be the role of a primary care provider for a patient, taking into account both physical health and behavioral health needs? In my opinion, the role of the PCP is to work on the 4 pillars of health (Nutrition, Movement, Sleep, Connection) for each patient and to tailor their management to optimizing each particular category as well as possible. My goal is to empower you to be in control of your life and mental health. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I enjoy traveling internationally, dancing Brazilian zouk among other Latin dances, and trying out new cultural cuisines everywhere. Dance is a big part of my life now and I encourage everyone to try it consistently.
