Growing up in the Millwoods community she saw her local optometrist annually and quickly gravitated to the profession. Seeing optometry as an opportunity to deliver quality and patient centered care is one of the most enjoyable aspects of her profession.
During her time spent in Boston she acquired the knowledge and skills to serve patients from all ages and backgrounds. Her most memorable experiences during this time was working in Boston’s community centers and the Veteran’s Affair Hospitals.
Some of her favorite pastimes are spending time with friends and family along with running.
Why optometry:
Optometry has given me the unique opportunity to connect with others in a deep and meaningful way. I never fail to see myself in the patient across from me and if we are able to help every individual across from us in the smallest of ways, we can deem each day at work a successful one.
