Care Philosophy
As a cancer survivor myself, I am passionate about helping patients navigate their own cancer journeys. I enjoy developing relationships, so that I can treat the whole person, and help patients reach their goals.
Personal Statement
As a busy mom, you can usually find me doing whatever my kids are up to! Our family enjoys kayaking, hiking, biking and playing board games. I also enjoy gardening, cooking, drawing and reading.

It would be nice if the "trust this device" worked on MyChart. Have to get a text code every time.

Kirsten was very helpful. I needed to vent and she listened better than anyone I've had at GLH. There was time enough for us to discuss me, which rately happens in the system. She was patient and kind.
