A Little More About Me
I was born in Paris, France, and moved to the United States at the age of 10 from Cairo, Egypt, where my family heritage is rooted.
Music has always been an important part of my life. I played both the violin and flute, and during college, I was a member of the K-State Marching Band.
Professionally, I worked as a Chemical Engineering intern for Conoco Oil Company. Outside of work, I love to travel, hike, and explore new cities, cultures, and cuisines.
I have been married to my wonderful husband for 25 years, and together we have two grown children.
Why I Practice Medicine
My grandfather was a doctor in rural Egypt, and from a young age, I hoped to follow in his footsteps. Growing up, I heard stories about his patients and the meaningful ways he served his community.
God opened the door for me to become a doctor, and I consider it a true privilege to care for, advise, and comfort my patients.
