About Me
I am a board-certified nurse practitioner who specializes in neurology at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I commonly treat conditions including headache and memory disorders, carpal tunnel syndrome, restless leg syndrome and neuralgia. I also see patients for diabetic nerve damage, epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, hereditary sensory and motor neuropathy disorders and other conditions.
I chose to pursue a career in medicine after becoming a patient myself. During that experience, I became fascinated and curious about how the body works and that enthusiasm now carries over into my clinical care. I strive to always provide the best care possible to everyone who comes to see me. My goal is to help patients improve their health and gain a better understanding of their own body and chronic conditions.
