About Me

As a board-certified family nurse practitioner at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I diagnose and treat patients for a wide variety of acute and chronic conditions. I also emphasize preventive medicine and provide routine wellness examinations. After having my children, I was inspired to pursue a career in the medical field so I could help others on their health journeys.

Throughout my career, I’ve supported patients during some of their most vulnerable times. It’s especially rewarding to have a positive impact and help them achieve the best outcomes possible. I appreciate the opportunity to care for my patients while enhancing their overall wellness and quality of life.

My patients can rely on me for compassion and empathy every time they come to see me. Building a trusting relationship with my patients and their families, through honest communication and listening, is important to me. Patients can also expect a collaborative approach. I empower each of my patients to take an active role in their care as we work together to achieve their wellness goals.

I’m excited to be part of the Ohio State Wexner Medical Center. I appreciate the commitment to innovation and the opportunity to shape my career, as well as the resources readily available that allow me to provide the highest quality care possible for my patients.

When I’m not working, I love spending time with my husband, children, grandchildren and my huskies. I enjoy jogging, long walks in the park, cooking and traveling.
