Where did you grow up?
McLean, Virginia
Why did you become a doctor and why did you choose your specialty?
Growing up, I saw my parents, who are both physicians, make a difference in the lives of others and they inspired me to do the same. My experiences in medical school, residency and fellowship led to my interest in the field of Allergy & Immunology as I enjoy building long-lasting relationships with my patients and their families to help improve their quality of life.
How long have you practiced in the Washington, DC area and what do you like most about it?
I moved back to Northern Virginia in June 2018. What I like most about my hometown is the ethnically diverse community and being able to enjoy the many perks that come with living in this area!
What do you most enjoy doing outside of your clinical practice, when you’re not working?
I enjoy spending quality time with family and friends, being active (playing tennis, basketball, outdoor activities), traveling, listening to music, trying new foods and volunteering in the community.
Do you volunteer? If so, where?
Yes, I enjoy volunteering at community health fairs and local hospitals.
Describe your proudest accomplishment as a provider and/or in your personal life:
My proudest accomplishment as a provider is being able to see the difference I make in the lives of children everyday. Words cannot describe the feeling you get when a child gives you a big hug and smile at the end of a visit.
If you weren’t a doctor, what profession would you most likely be doing and why?
I truly could not imagine doing anything else but if I had to choose I would most likely be an elementary school teacher because I love interacting with kids.
