Please note: At this time, I am currently only accepting new patients who are 10 years old and above. I’ve always loved serving my community, and with my background in the U.S. Navy serving as a Hospital Corpsman, I knew that becoming a physician assistant (PA) would allow me to give back to my community and pursue my love of medicine. I treat each patient as if they are a member of my own family. Every individual is important, so I prioritize listening to their concerns, ensuring patient autonomy and providing respectful, holistic care. My areas of special interest are diabetes prevention and management, women’s health, menopause management, general preventive care and optimizing mental health. Outside of the office, I am an avid long-distance runner and an amateur chef at home. I like to read, and I love spending time relaxing in nature with my family.
