Questions are vehicles to the stories we tell. In truth, our curiosity can never travel further than the questions we ask, and our stories will never elevate beyond the constraints of our curiosity.

I've spent the last decade swashbuckling through the jungle of the American Healthcare system, and there are few places more in need of a redemptive narrative arc. We need a better story. 

I've worked the patient side as a nutritionist, and I've worked the clinical side of dermatology, gynecology, and ophthalmology, both in operations and documentation. And more than ever, I am passionate at prioritizing human decency, and elevating scientific clarity, in a system often defined by dehumanization and complexity. 

My writing centers the questions we ask, and the stories we tell; about nutrition, about resourcing, and about health and care in America.
