About Me

I spent the majority of my life in Florida until briefly residing in New York, although I am ecstatic to return home and be near family. I enjoy the sunshine and being active, which often consists of boating, biking, fishing and kickboxing. If I’m not outdoors, I can be found cooking for my family and snuggling my nephews.

My philosophy of care employs a holistic approach encompassing the mind, the body, and the environment as I recognize “health” is much more than physical ailment. Our relationships, employment, finances, and the like all greatly affect our ability to lead a healthy lifestyle. I feel acceptance and open communication is key to promoting healthy provider/patient relationships, which ultimately allows for improved education, prevention, and overall health outcomes.

I look forward to continuing to give back to my new community here in Jacksonville with the ARC and National Alliance of Mental Illness.
