About

Welcome to my profile! I'm a dedicated Family Nurse Practitioner with a passion for fostering wellness across all ages. From the littlest ones in need of well-child care to adults seeking guidance on health promotion, my focus is on preventive medicine to keep you healthy and thriving.

 

At the heart of my practice is a commitment to understanding you as a whole person. I take the time to listen and learn about your unique cultural, physical, and mental factors, ensuring our health plans support your life goals. Whether it's simplifying your medications or providing comprehensive care for both acute and chronic conditions, I'm here to tailor treatments that work best for you.

 

My experience extends to the critical care setting as an ICU nurse, where I honed my skills in delivering evidence-based care with compassion and precision. Quick to respond in emergencies and always professional, I strive to build meaningful relationships with my patients by being attentive to their individual needs.

 

 

I understand that healthcare can be complex, but I'm here to make it simpler and more accessible for you. Let's work together towards your best health!
