About Me
As a doctor of nursing practice at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I manage and treat patients who are suffering from heart failure. When it comes to patient care, I believe in educating my patients on their conditions and emphasizing preventative medicine. I’m passionate about my career because of the many opportunities and methods that I’m able to use to help others every day.
My favorite part about working here at Ohio State is the academic atmosphere and the strong focus on research, which directly impacts patient care.
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time playing with my dogs, doing yardwork and playing golf.

My provider to me, my provider is closer than relatives - I have strong confidence in him, so I share whatever I need to say about my healthy care.
I had previous met this provider when I was hospitalized. He expressed concern re: The many issues involved in my care. He called in the pharmacist to confer w/us and together they provided several choices regarding my treatment.
