As a nurse practitioner in the Comprehensive Epilepsy Program at the University of Rochester, I enjoy working with a multidisciplinary team of providers to improve the lives of people with drug resistant epilepsy. Providing direct care, education, advocacy, and volunteering with the local Epilepsy Foundation to reduce stigma and improve support services have been my passion for almost two decades.
