Her professional interests focus on treating lymphedema and breast cancer treatment-related impairments. She established a lymphedema support group for the local community and received a service award from the hospital for “supporting our diverse community” through her efforts with the support group and educational initiatives within the hospital system and community.

She is dedicated to supporting lymphatic clinicians by providing quality continuing education and resources for the community about lymphatic disease.
Lymphedema, a progressive and chronic condition affecting millions worldwide, often goes unrecognized and untreated. Therapists regularly encounter patients with lymphatic system injuries, such as post-surgical swelling or trauma-related edema.
