What motivates you?

I chose pediatrics because I love working with kids. I love how they are inherently good, resilient, and fun! They are our future and by helping them we are improving our world. My community is full of joy. My family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers all share a common set of values: compassion, service, teamwork, education. We all try to focus on the classic, important things in life and not waste time on passing trends. Outside of work I spend time playing outdoors with my two children, reading, and exploring new places. We cook and travel together as much as we can. We love having , and going to the beach every summer.

“My son was pretty sick prior to a vacation and they were on it. We saw Christiana Femano and she didn't leave a stone unturned. We have treatment and he is feeling much better.”
