I am a nurse practitioner specializing in primary care within the Community Health Services Network (CHSN). At the school-based health centers, we provide patient-centered, family-focused primary care to children attending the schools and serve the surrounding communities. I am a Cincinnati native and completed my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and Master of Science in Nursing-Family Nurse Practitioner (MSN-FNP) degrees at the University of Cincinnati.

As a child, I was a patient at Cincinnati Children’s, and my own experiences inspired me to help others with their healthcare journey. Building relationships with families and empowering children to care for their health brings me great joy. My approach to patient care is to treat every patient respectfully, compassionately and in a way that I would want my family members to be treated.

Throughout my career as a nurse practitioner, I have focused on caring for underserved populations of all ages and helping to bridge gaps in health inequalities.

When I am not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family and our mini goldendoodle, reading, traveling, exercising and playing video games.
