Edu­ca­tion — I believe that pre­ven­ta­tive edu­ca­tion is so impor­tant, espe­cial­ly in today’s cul­ture. Car­dio­vas­cu­lar dis­ease is the lead­ing cause of death in the Unit­ed States. Hyper­ten­sion — Near­ly half of Amer­i­can adults have high blood pres­sure. Man­ag­ing blood pres­sure by reduc­ing risk fac­tors, lifestyle changes, and med­ica­tion reg­i­mens can save lives. Hyper­lipi­demia — Detect­ing, treat­ing, and man­ag­ing high cho­les­terol reduces risks for oth­er dis­eases. Heart Fail­ure — Pre­vent­ing, diag­nos­ing, treat­ing, and man­ag­ing heart fail­ure so that patients have improved qual­i­ty and length of life.

I have many hob­bies and inter­ests and tend to stay busy. I love, love, love sum­mer and being out­side. I like to trav­el and see new places with fam­i­ly and friends. I enjoy play­ing golf. I also enjoy craft­ing, wood work­ing, gar­den­ing, and projects around the home with my hus­band. I love time with my family.
