My expertise lies in patient education, chronic respiratory disease management, and promoting pulmonary health within diverse populations. I am committed to improving health outcomes through education, prevention, and community collaboration.

Throughout my career, I have held various roles, including Lead Respiratory Therapist and Subacute Manager, where I managed pulmonary interventions and directed operations for respiratory units. My achievements include mentoring new staff, leading quality improvement initiatives, and receiving recognition as Employee of the Month and Employee of the Year. I am passionate about enhancing patient care through interdisciplinary collaboration and culturally competent practices.
