About
I became a genetic counselor because I wanted a career where I could tap into my interest in genetics to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. Genetic counseling was a good fit that would allow me to help people understand their personal and family history and genetic information to make informed healthcare decisions. I’m passionate about providing patient-centered care and supporting individuals as they navigate complex genetic information. Outside of work I enjoy exploring the great outdoors through hiking and camping. I also love finding new restaurants and cuisines to try.
