My philosophy of care is informed coupled with shared decision-making. I seek to understand each person’s individual goals, concerns, and motivations to build rapport and create the best plan of care. I love working in partnership with our incredible physicians and support staff to provide patient-centered, individualized care.
I grew up and completed my education in Louisiana, but have worked the longest in Colorado. I recently returned to UCHealth after working in Hawaii for 2.5 years. Originally, I planned to work in cancer research and completed my Master’s degree in a cancer research laboratory. However, a chance conversation with a good friend led me to PA school. I have been an oncology PA for over 12 years now and I love it! I am married with one daughter in college. In my free time, I enjoy baking, reading, crafting and getting outdoors.
