She received her Bachelor of Health Science in Physician Assistant Studies from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Her prior experience spans multiple specialties, including several surgical specialties, including plastic surgery, urologic, vascular, orthopedic, and neurosurgery, as well as clinical pharmaceutical research, psychiatry, and home health.

She easily relates to her patients’ challenges while easing their concerns through education as she partners with them to create treatment plans that align with their goals. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her two adult sons and daughters-in-love and cuddling with her two miniature schnauzers and baby chihuahua while watching crime documentaries.
