About Me

I took a different path than most nurses, studying city planning and working in this field for several years before returning to school for nursing. I believe this gives me a different perspective on medicine. I strive to focus on wholistic care and consider the social determinants of health when providing care. Outside of work, I enjoy playing the violin & oboe, knitting and crocheting. Originally from a small town in northern Ohio, I love to return in the Summer to swim in Lake Erie. I have two cats that run my world and allow me to live with them.

Procedures and Conditions I Treat:

• Health promotion
• Disease prevention
• Management of acute and chronic conditions
