Quality time with my family

Outside of my role as a healthcare provider, I love going to the movies and restaurants with my family.

I like fashion, taking pictures, doing make-up, travelling and reading scholarly articles for evidence. 

Additionally, I love helping people, which allows me to integrate compassion and caring into my entire life.
