My skin journey starts here ✨

I spend my days helping patients care for their skin… But today I'm sharing something a little more personal.

Like many of you, I have my own skin concerns. Years of outdoor sports, sun exposure, and simply living life have left me with areas of pigmentation and changes in my skin that I'd love to improve.

So I'm putting myself in the patient seat and starting a 12 week journey with Sente's pigment tone, correcting mask. I'm excited to share the process honestly – – not because I'm chasing perfection, but because healthy, radiant skin is about consistency, education, and caring for the skin we have through every season of life. I'll keep you updated on my progress ❤️

Like most people, my patients are concerned about Alzheimer’s disease. When Alzheimer’s is diagnosed at an earlier stage, medications may be able to slow the progression; however, historically, Alzheimer’s diagnostic tests have been limited. There is good news. The FDA approved a blood test in 2025 that can help diagnose Alzheimer’s during earlier stages. If you think you may be experiencing Alzheimer’s symptoms, reach out to me. Here’s what you need to know about this new test.

Most of my patients are not familiar with phthalates. These “everywhere chemicals” are found in many household and personal care items, and leach into the environment. They’re problematic because they can disrupt the endocrine system, damage the reproductive and neurological systems, and have been linked to obesity, asthma, allergies and some forms of cancer. Fortunately, there are some steps you can take to lower your exposure to phthalates. Here’s what you need to know.
