I am a board-certified physician assistant who specializes in caring for children and young adults who have undergone blood or bone marrow transplantation (also known as stem cell transplantation).
I see patients at Seattle Children's.
I enjoy being part of a multidisciplinary team with a shared purpose: supporting patients and families as they navigate the transplant process. The young people I work with continue to amaze me with their ability to cope, adapt and recover. There is nothing more thrilling than seeing patients I've treated accomplish milestones - toddlers who are finally able to eat on their own, teenagers who graduate from high school or young adults graduating from college and getting married.
