Program Manager

I have been dedicated to Graduate Medical Education (GME) for over a decade, overseeing surgical and non-surgical specialties. I am committed to fostering the development of future physicians and enhancing training programs. I value Trinity Health’s strong culture and unwavering investment in medical education.

Having lived in Grand Rapids for 30 years, I appreciate the community and enjoy the proximity to Lake Michigan. No matter what the season is, there is always something fun to do in Grand Rapids.
