She also volunteers as camp medical counselor and camp director for Camp Hodia, a camp for kids with type 1 diabetes.
Palliative motivation: Throughout my 23 years of working in various roles in healthcare, I have experienced a fascinating spectrum of people, spiritual ideals, and the science and art of medicine. Much of my training has been in disease prevention and treatment to prolong life, however I have become intrigued with the intricate human process of accepting mortality while maintaining quality of life and autonomy. I have witnessed exceptional hospice and palliative care, and would like to help expand this rapidly growing field to help improve the later years of our aging population.
