About Me

As a certified nurse practitioner, I specialize in benign thyroid conditions, type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and bone health. I also manage the chronic conditions associated with these medical issues. I take a compassionate approach to patient care, providing individualized care plans for each person according to their needs and goals. I strive to work together with my patients as a team to help them understand how they can take charge of their own health. I encourage them to make positive choices in managing all of their health challenges.

I graduated from Ohio Dominican University with a degree in psychology and sociology. I received my MS in nursing from The Ohio State University.

My favorite part about working at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center is the continuous advancement in care and research that ultimately provide even better outcomes for our patients and community.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors and being with my family, friends and pets.
