Since I became interested in a career in medicine, I knew I wanted to work in women’s health, and I have been doing so since 1994.
Since 2003, I have been a part of the AIVF “family.” We have a wonderful group of people here, all of whom I consider part of my own extended family. I am very fortunate to work in a “cutting edge” field, which is also extremely emotionally rewarding. This appeals to both the scientist in me, and the mother in me. I myself have been blessed with two beautiful daughters and understand the desire to have a family, and am thoroughly committed to helping others fulfill their dreams of having a family.
