ABOUT ME

In my healthcare career, I have worked as an emergency medical technician, a patient care technician, a clinical researcher, a registered nurse, and, finally, a nurse practitioner. I like to think that this experience has made me into a provider who is knowledgeable, open-minded, and compassionate. It is my hope to manifest and display those qualities to all of my patients.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

I worked as an RN in dialysis centers for six years and in home health for a brief six months.

FAVORITE ACTIVITY OUTSIDE OF WORK

I love traveling to see family and friends around the country and staying physically active in various ways, such as running, swimming, lifting, boxing, kickboxing, and hiking.

WHAT WILL MAKE YOU A GREAT PROVIDER?

I will help patients incorporate health knowledge into their lives in practical and cost-efficient ways, working toward achievable goals that honor each patient\’s personal definition of good health.
