As an Air Force veteran and not being from anywhere in particular, it is great to call the beautiful state of Colorado home. I have always known that my calling was to care for children and make a positive impact on their lives. I am a Certified Lactation Counselor and have a special interest in the amazing lifelong benefits of helping moms breastfeed. I am also a Nationally Certified Asthma Educator and fluent in English and Spanish. Because I am a mother of four children, I know the importance of having a good support system.
I believe in providing efficient, compassionate, personalized and evidence-based medical care to a diverse group of patients from all walks of life and backgrounds. My goal is to work with my patients through shared-decision making to determine the best plan for their lifestyle and healthcare needs. I am passionate about providing education and working with my patients through all stages of life and in treatment of their chronic or acute health conditions. I strive to maintain a judgement-free, inclusive space for all patients.
I was born and raised in Tucker, GA and moved to Colorado Springs, CO to attend the United States Air Force Academy in 2007. I was a collegiate gymnast for all four years while attending the Academy. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology in 2011 and started my Air Force career as a Force Support Officer. I switched career paths in 2013 to head to Physician Assistant School at Fort Sam Houston, TX, where I received my Master’s in Physician Assistant Studies in 2016. I served a total of seven years of active duty service, with two and half of those years as a military PA.
I have been a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner for 27 years. I received my Bachelor’s degree in nursing from the University of Southern Maine and my Pediatric Nurse Practitioner degree from the USAF School of Health Care Sciences. I completed 23 years of active and reserve service in the US Air Force and enjoyed being a clinical instructor for both Family and Pediatric Nurse Practitioner students.
I grew up in Colorado Springs, and then headed up I-25 to Colorado State University for my undergraduate education. There, I received my Bachelor’s in Health and Exercise Science with a Sports Medicine concentration. Following my undergraduate education, I worked as a Cardiovascular Technician in Fort Collins for four years, and grew to love cardiology and medicine. I then headed further north and completed my Masters Degree in Physician Assistant Studies at Rocky Mountain College in Billings, Montana.
I was born and raised in Denver, CO where my close-knit family still lives. I attended Colorado College here in Colorado Springs and fell in love with the city and the gorgeous Pikes Peak view! After earning my Bachelor degree in Biology, I left to attend PA school in Chicago, IL where I received my Master of Medical Science degree in Physician Assistant Studies. I moved back to Colorado Springs to begin practicing medicine and have been here ever since; this is home and this is where I want to grow my roots.
I began my nursing career more than 30 years ago because I truly enjoy helping others. I completed my Bachelor of Science in Nursing at University of Miami and later received a Master in Nursing from University of Washington as a Nurse Midwife. After retiring from the US Air Force, I made the decision to pursue my post-masters education as a Family Nurse Practitioner through University of Colorado at Colorado Springs. During my career, I have worked in women's health, pediatric, and family practice settings. I enjoy all aspects of family practice and care for patients in all age groups.
I was born and raised in Buffalo, NY where I met and married my high school sweetheart. I attended Gannon University, in Erie, PA, where I received both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees.
My husband was active duty Army so I moved and changed practices frequently early in my career. We have finally put down roots in Colorado Springs where we plan to raise our two little boys.
