About

I grew up in the Peoria area and have fond memories of my childhood and adolescence here. As I started a family of my own, I could easily envision putting our roots down in Peoria. I was thrilled to learn of the opportunity to work at Children's Hospital of Illinois and the St. Jude Affiliate Clinic. It is an honor to be able to return to the area to serve a vulnerable patient population in our community and the surrounding areas.

I am interested in continuing to grow the Pediatric Palliative Care Program across the hospital system and community to provide a multi-disciplinary approach to supporting children with life-limiting illnesses and their families.
