Bio
I am a dual-trained nurse practitioner with a BSN from Grand Canyon University, a DNP (Family Nurse Practitioner) from the University of Arizona, and PMHNP training from Wilkes University. I also completed three years of medical school, including an extensive surgical internship and third-year clerkships in internal medicine, radiology, and emergency medicine.
I hold ANCC board certifications as both a Family Nurse Practitioner and a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I am additionally certified in common outpatient procedures such as suturing, joint injection, and minor skin biopsy.
With over 10 years of experience as a Family Nurse Practitioner, I integrate primary care with behavioral health expertise. My clinical interests include comprehensive family medicine, co-occurring medical and psychiatric conditions, and procedural primary care in the outpatient setting.
My care approach is patient-centered, collaborative, and pragmatic—I emphasize clear communication, shared decision-making, and practical treatment plans. My patients consistently report feeling supported and well cared for.
