Medical Interests: Obstetrics, pediatrics, cross-cultural medicine, public health, emergency management
Outside Interests: I am an avid baker and love exploring foods from around the world. I also sew and have a particular interest in refashioning and historical costuming. I love animals of all kinds and grew up with a dog and riding horses. I have done animal rescue work with neonatal kittens, including rescuing my calico cat named Audrey off the streets in Israel.
Life before Medicine: My parents were missionaries, so I grew up all over the world, but spent my older childhood and teen years in Colorado. Before medical school, I took a gap year and had the privilege of working as a nanny for two wonderful little boys.
Favorite Music: Big band, swing, Christian folk, musical soundtracks, movie scores
Favorite Movies: Treasure Planet, UP, The Two Popes, The Prince of Egypt
Why you chose MFMR: I chose MFMR because I saw an opportunity to grow both in medicine and in public health while serving the people of Billings and working with a great team of people. I also loved Montana from the moment I landed, and I knew it would feel like home in no time.
