About Me

As a primary care family nurse practitioner at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I specialize in primary care, disease prevention and chronic disease management.

I enjoy teaching patients how to get involved with their care. I believe that it takes a team made up of multiple providers, support staff and most importantly, the patient, to prevent illness and manage chronic diseases.

My favorite part about working at Ohio State is the inter-professional staff and the opportunity to work with an amazing team of healthcare professionals.

When I’m not working, I enjoy spending my free time with family, traveling, volunteering and participating in community activities.

    She's great, but you need to clone her. I will miss her when I have to see someone else.
