My Journey

I am a high school teacher turned pharmacist, who practices in a primary care setting by day and precepts numerous students and residents. I am a recovering impostor and perfectionist, and I am passionate about sharing the tools that have helped me in my own journey.

I have always loved to read and write, and once I overcame my Inner Critic, I decided to write about how to do just that. My chapter on Taming the Inner Critic is a tribute to the 8-year-old Kate with big dreams and illuminates the hope I have for my own kids to dream big and be their own biggest cheerleader - next to mom of course!
