“I love getting to meet so many interesting patients, and helping them with their health-related concerns. My goal is for my patients to feel heard and cared for, and to establish a therapeutic patient-centered relationship.”
Background
Previously I worked as a hospital RN, caring for critically ill patients with a wide range of neurological disorders and other medical problems. I cared for many stroke patients, which I enjoyed and learned a lot from. I decided to pursue a career where I could make more of an impact, helping people avoid preventable illness and debility. My ultimate life goal is to make a positive contribution to the world by helping people lead healthier, happier lives.
Education
Life and Hobbies
I enjoy caring for the animals and gardens on our hobby farm. I also enjoy sewing, reading, and any outdoor activities, including camping, hiking, trail running, biking, skiing, and swimming. I live in Alexander, about 25 minutes north of Asheville. I am married with two kids, ages 3 and 11.
