"I have mentored University of Chicago students interested in careers in biomedicine, and would like to do the same for Augustana students. Over the course of my career I have spent time as a bench researcher, clinical nephrologist in both academic and private practice, and clinical researcher. I have also raised 3 children while maintaining an active career. I look forward to providing guidance to current and future Augustana students who are seeking careers as physicians and/or researchers."
