I was born and raised in Santa Barbara, California, and relocated to Queen Creek, Arizona, in 2005 with my husband and our three daughters. I have more than 30 years of nursing experience, with the majority of my career spent in emergency medicine, where I developed a strong foundation in providing compassionate, high-quality care in fast-paced, high-acuity environments.
Committed to lifelong learning and professional growth, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Western Governors University in 2017 and my Master of Science in Nursing with a focus in Advanced Practice Nursing from Grand Canyon University in 2021. I am also a proud member of the Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing.
As a Nurse Practitioner, I have nearly four years of experience providing primary care in a rural healthcare setting, followed by several years specializing in pain management. I am passionate about building meaningful relationships with my patients and providing individualized, evidence-based care that helps improve their overall health and quality of life.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and taking advantage of Arizona’s outdoors, especially paddleboarding on the Salt River.
