About Me

I was born in Clarksburg, West Virgina, and lived there for a decade. My family relocated to Hagerstown, Maryland, and I lived there until my recent relocation to Jacksonville. When not caring for patients, I love to spend time with my family, travel, shop and watch the Philadelphia Eagles football team.

I focus on listening to patients and involving my patients in every aspect of their care. My patient and I become a team and must work together to achieve our goals.

I have respect for all humans and genuinely love to care for patients. I feel blessed to have the gift of caring and listening to help all patients through their health journey.
