As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I was always torn between being an astronaut or a famous singer… those two things are so similar, I know ;-)

Where did you go to optometry school?

Illinois College of Optometry

What is your favorite food?

Any type of pasta!

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?

I love to just get outside and go for a walk or spend time with my family. Lately I’ve been trying to get a little crafty with some DIY projects, but I’m not very good at that yet.

What is your favorite sports team?

Green Bay Packers!

What are your optometric areas of interest?

I love taking care of all patients and provide comprehensive optometry, but I have a special interest in contact lens and ocular disease.

Why do you love being an optometrist?

I love being an optometrist for those moments when I can tell I’ve truly made a difference in someone’s life by bringing back a little happiness with improving vision. It’s one of the most rewarding feelings to witness a change in someone’s expression when they see something new.
