Outside the clinic, you'll find me embracing the great outdoors and all the adventures it offers. From the exhilarating slopes of Mammoth to the peaceful trails where I run, nature is my sanctuary. I love exploring new places during vacations, finding inspiration in each new experience, and indulging in the delight of good food. However, amidst my adventures, nothing brings me more happiness than spending quality time with my family, friends, and my loyal pup, Brutus. These moments ground me in the values of connection, love, and pure contentment, reminding me of the true essence of life.
