Hi, I’m Natalie.

I am a designer and medical student.

I delve into the policies, actions, places, and systems that contribute to disease in order to diagnose issues and create empathetic, personalized, and creative solutions. 

health is everything.

I believe that health and healthcare are not simply experiences of scientific significance but ones that involve all aspects of life.

Physicians are more than scientists. We are storytellers, coaches, designers, healers, cheerleaders, leaders, artists, followers, architects, mechanics, conductors, and more. Our role is as dynamic as the lives we seek to understand and support.

I firmly believe I have a duty to truly know my patients—to give them the space and time to express themselves, to amplify their stories, and to offer solutions that are clear, simple, and deeply attuned to their experiences.

Like a journalist, I am bound to the truth. But uncovering that truth—teasing it out from my patients and delivering it with care—is an art. It requires patience, presence, and an unwavering commitment to both honesty and humanity.
