A typical day in my life includes…
waking up at 5:15 and meditating for 15 minutes, followed by a 20 to 30 minute walk, yoga session or workout on my power plate. Making breakfast for my family and prepping my boys for school. Out the door at 7:45 to get my boys to school and head to work to treat my patients. Home to have dinner and some downtime with my family. That time could include a variety of activities, such as practicing jui jitsu moves with my boys or watching an episode of The Office!
I was born…
in a gorgeous small town in upstate New York! I loved the green rolling hills and woods of New York. It’s so peaceful, but it can be very grey and cold! I knew I wanted to go to medical school in a warm and sunny location – Hello Arizona!
My favorite thing about Arizona…
the lakes and high desert. I’m an outdoor girl at heart. I love being out on the water boating with friends and family, and camping.
I’m listening to…
Post Malone essentials and meditations on the Calm App.
My family…
is very supportive and loving. We are always there for each other. We believe in following your dreams and being true to your heart.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
my paternal grandmother, who I only met once before she passed on. I would love to know more about her and her life.
One thing I cannot live without…
is giving and receiving love!
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
a babysitter, then a firefighter, then a doctor.
I’m inspired by…
the Dali Lama. He has devoted his life to helping humanity. It has always been my desire to help others feel a little more joy in their lives. I feel grateful every day for the opportunity to help others feel better about themselves.
The one person who motivates me is…
there are many people who motivate me. My children motivate me every day to be a more evolved version of myself. More patient, compassionate, open-minded and authentic.
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
hunger. I want everyone to have enough food to fill their bellies.
The perfect day would be…
to wake up full of energy! Meditate and do some yoga, have a breakfast including vegetable juice and eggs, then go for a walk. I would go to the beach with my family and play in the waves and sand. Go to a great dinner, then watch the sunset on the beach with a bonfire.
My first job was…
as an aerobics instructor at a local gym when I was in high school. I have a passion for movement and teaching others how to take good care of themselves.
My favorite escape…
dancing! I love dancing to pop/dance music or salsa.
My life…
is very full and blessed!
I’m currently working on…
advancing my techniques and knowledge of aesthetic medicine. I love attending conferences and researching new techniques to provide my patients with the best outcomes.
Always…
treat everyone equally.
Never…
stop learning and growing. I am a perpetual student of life. I will never claim to know everything. There is excitement in learning and growing as a multifaceted human being. I love to learn more about my field of aesthetics, naturopathic medicine, health and wellness.
Favorite Quote…
“Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.” Life is so sweet in the present moment!
Biggest Dream…
that there comes a day where humanity can come together in peace, acceptance, and appreciation of each other.
My Pet Peeve(s)…
when my adorable boxer pees on my curtains.
