My Life

I am married to an ex-football and rubgy player, Mark, and we recently welcomed our first baby. When I'm not in the clinic you can find me jogging along the beach at Jericho with Mark (now pushing a stroller), riding bikes (dragging a stroller), downhill skiing (with a kid in a back pack), or trying to learn to hit a golf ball straight (if we have a babysitter).
