Where I practice
About me
I was born and raised in a small town, surrounded by a strong and supportive family. I lived with my grandparents until I was eleven years old, and during that time, I witnessed my grandmother live with and eventually pass away from several chronic illnesses. That experience sparked my initial interest in the medical field.
After graduating from nursing school, I spent the next twenty years working as a registered nurse in the cardiovascular intensive care unit and the emergency room. After having my first child later in life, I realized that I had many working years ahead of me and decided to pursue further education to become a nurse practitioner.
I began my nurse practitioner career in the emergency department and spent the first eight years there while also working with inpatient cardiology. Those years provided me with a wealth of knowledge and experience that continue to guide my practice today.
About my practice
The Adult Primary Care Department is dedicated to delivering exceptional care to our members. We have thoughtfully allocated our resources to ensure timely communication and easy access to services. Our team works collaboratively to make every aspect of your visit as comfortable, efficient, and meaningful as possible.
How I thrive
I thrive in mind, body, and spirit by maintaining a healthy sense of balance. I am committed to continually improving in my profession, spending quality time with my family, making time for personal reflection, and nurturing my spiritual relationship. I believe that true fulfillment is not possible without this balance.
