Biography
I am a board-certified nurse practitioner with the Division of Rheumatology and Immunology at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I have the privilege of collaborating with some of the top physicians in the field of rheumatology. Together, we manage a wide range of diseases that includes the ones listed here.
As an advanced practice provider, my role is to diagnose, treat and educate patients who have received these diagnoses. When patients come to see me, we develop a collaborative plan of care tailored to their unique needs and preferences. I believe that by involving the patient in the decision-making process, we are better able to work together to achieve wellness goals.
I enjoy working in academic medicine as I have access to multiple ways of learning and sharpening my abilities as a patient care provider. I also serve as an adjunct instructor of Clinical Practice for The Ohio State University College of Nursing.
