I am an ANCC board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I received my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of North Carolina Wilmington and my Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University. Prior to completing my Master of Science in Nursing I worked as a surgical nurse caring for patients during one of their most vulnerable times. I have worked in healthcare for fourteen years and found my passion caring for people in the mental health field through professional and personal experiences.

Open-mindedness, continuous improvement, connection, compassion, and acceptance are just a few core values that I align with and motivate me to make a positive impact in my community. I am passionate about providing patient centered holistic care through addressing the physical, emotional, cultural, and spiritual elements of wellbeing. Mental health is like a puzzle, and I strive to help each individual put one piece together at a time.

My areas of interest include but are not limited to ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and PTSD/trauma. I treat patients ages 18 and up.

Outside of work I enjoy being outside paddle boarding, camping, and hiking with my sweet dog.
