I am a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner with a specialization in addiction medicine. My background is in emergency medical services, and I have worked in numerous emergency departments in central Florida over the past 12 years. After 8 years of service in the ER, and witnessing firsthand the needs of the community, I transitioned to the field of psychiatry in order to better serve patients and to align my career with my heart's calling - promoting mental health. I am currently working in the community mental health setting with addiction and psychiatric crisis patients and their families. I consider myself blessed to humbly serve members of the community with an open-minded and non-judgmental approach.

I have worked in the inpatient, outpatient, and residential settings, in both primary mental health, dual-diagnoses, and addiction medicine.
I am also passionate about teaching and have had 50+ psychiatry students who have trained with me through the years.
In my personal time, I love birding, fishing, hiking, white-water rafting, traveling, and experiencing new cultures and cuisines.
