Tell us what makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider. I love being able to help people be the best version of themselves that they can be. Part of being the best is being healthy mentally and physically. 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? The PCP should take into account that the mental and physical cannot be separated. One's mental and physical health affect the wellness of the person as a whole. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I like to play with my dogs and ride horses. I also enjoy kayaking/boating as well as reading.
