"If I could choose any area of healthcare services to be a subject matter expert in, I would choose gastroenterology. When my brother was born, he had numerous intestinal disorders and spent a lot of time in the Texas Children's Hospital. I was amazed by how many stomach and intestinal disorders there are and would love to learn more."

"I have various interests within the healthcare industry, so that is a tough question for me! If I had to narrow it to just one area of expertise, I would say palliative care and the necessary family care that comes with it. I am interested in this specialty because this caregiving style is designed to improve a patient's quality of life, which should be everyone's goal as a healthcare professional."
