I have been working in family medicine since 1998 and continue to find joy in my patients. I strive to work as an advocate for each patient. I want to help lead patients to better health by focusing on all aspects of their well being. I have been at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center since 2003. I’ve maintained my goals of teaching medical students the art of medicine through effective communication skills and good decision making. What I enjoy the most about The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center is working with dedicated colleagues.
Current Research Projects
Expanding, Enhancing and Enriching the Primary Care Workforce through Clinical Transformation Education

The purpose of this collaborative project is to further enhance the leadership roles of the Department of Family and Community Medicine (lead applicant training program) and the College of Nursing (partnering collaborative training program) through continued development and implementation of innovative education and training initiatives designed to assure an enlarged primary care provider workforce well-prepared to practice in and lead transforming health care delivery systems.
