I care deeply about people. It’s my desire to ensure all patients feel seen, heard, cared for, safe and valued. I want patients to feel they understand their diagnosis, be actively involved in their treatment and be comfortable with their follow-up plans. I love that in medicine we get to provide physical, mental and emotional relief to individuals and make someone’s bad day better.
I am happily married to my wonderful husband, and together we have two amazing kids and a very active Bengal cat named Woolsey. In our spare time, we enjoy getting out in our community and the mountains, traveling, being active, boating and snowmobiling together.

-
My greatest interests are in urgent care, pre-hospital medicine and emergency medicine. I have 20 years of experience in emergency medical services prior to becoming a PA. My time spent in the back of an ambulance taught me lessons that are universal to all healthcare: adaptability, rapid decision making, creativity, clear communication, working on a team, and most importantly of all, profound compassion for all patients.
- Research interest for patients
-
In 2024, I completed my Doctor of Medical Science degree at Butler University to expand my knowledge of conducting and writing research projects. I focused my research paper on rates of complications between endotracheal intubations and supraglottic airways in out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. In the future, I have interest in research topics related to community health programs and improvement of health outcomes.
