About Me
My journey in becoming a doctor started with my first red medical doctor kit from the toy store at age five. In the first grade, play was quickly transformed into caring for others when I was asked to volunteer at the local community health clinic. My job changed quickly from placing Band-Aids after immunizations to other more involved roles as I got older. After graduating high school in Haiti, I was privileged with multiple other opportunities that continued to mold my skills to care for the most vulnerable in our population in special shelters and other places where a helping hand and kind words of encouragement were needed.
While I enjoyed helping in all those circumstances, I have found the most satisfying and impactful work has been taking care of pregnant women and their families. Looking back, life has been preparing me for this career path and I flourish within it. The dedication for equal access to care exhibited by the nuns at the neighborhood clinic, my mother’s passion as a CVICU nurse and the child-like scientific curiosity of some wonderful mentors have shaped me into the type of Maternal-Fetal Medicine specialist I aim to be.
Maternal-Fetal Medicine as a field is constantly evolving and through those changes, we are allowed to offer the best science-based knowledge to improve the health of women and their families. For me, every day is a new and unique opportunity to connect with families by providing guidance, understanding and compassion in some of their most difficult moments.
