How does your work here contribute to the Redeemer Health mission to care, comfort and heal?
I am honored to support our mission and values to care, comfort and heal by serving our patients in any way that I can as well as assisting our office and field staff in the Mercer location, to troubleshoot any issues that arise as best as I can. The day-to-day interactions with both patients and staff allow me to learn new things daily that assist me in being a pillar in building strength and bonds with staff and patients. 

What do you enjoy doing outside of work?
I enjoy spending time with family, relaxing, reading, cooking, traveling, nature walks, visiting local museums, taking road trips, listening to my favorite music, attending local festivals, and art and crafts vendor fairs, playing bingo and exercising. 

What would you like to share about your family and pets? 
My fiancé and I love being parents and watching our daughter become a wonderful young lady. We are also enjoying the pleasures of being fur baby parents to a cute Siberian Husky named Athena!
