What I'm looking for

I seek a patient-centered family practice role emphasizing preventive care, quality improvement, interdisciplinary collaboration, teaching opportunities, and scope to apply aesthetic services and clinical leadership to improve outcomes.

I am a DNP-prepared, board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner who provides comprehensive, holistic care across the lifespan, managing preventive health, acute concerns, and chronic disease management for 18–25 patients per day. I prioritize quality metrics, patient-centered outcomes, and interdisciplinary collaboration to deliver cohesive care.

My doctoral work focused on an EMR tool for prediabetes screening, and I bring experience in pediatrics, CVICU, and emergency settings. I serve on advanced practice and professional society committees, coordinate education and conferences, and hold certifications in ACLS, PALS, TNCC, and aesthetic injectables to expand patient care options.
