“I have been fascinated by the workings of the human body since childhood and have always dreamed of working in healthcare. I had originally intended to obtain my degree in biomedical engineering and designing artificial joints and limbs, but was much more intrigued with the biology part of it and decided to concentrate my focus there.”

“Cardiology has always held a special interest for me. After college, I worked in cardiovascular research for five years, before and during my time in grad school. This interest was reinforced when my father began having heart problems and needed cardiac bypass surgery plus many stents over the years. During grad school, I also worked at a short/long-term rehabilitation facility as a nurse and I continue this work in a different capacity, seeing patients at multiple rehab facilities on a regular basis. I began working at Norwood Medical Associates the fall after my graduation and have been able to form many long-term relationships with some truly wonderful patients. I look forward to going to work every day and I love the challenge that this profession brings to me. I honestly never know what each day will bring and I truly enjoy this.”
