Born and raised in Petoskey, Michigan, I’ve always felt deeply connected to Northern Michigan and the community I’m proud to call home. Growing up here shaped who I am and the way I provide care to others.
I earned an Associates Degree from Kirtland Community College and a Bachelors degree from Ohio University. After 10 years of working as a registered nurse, I furthered my education and completed a Masters degree as a Family Nurse Practitioner, graduating in 2022 from Georgia Southwestern State University.
I value taking the time to truly listen and understand each person’s story. My goal is to partner with patients in a way that feels supportive, comfortable, and focused on what matters most to them and their health. I enjoy meeting my patients where they are to reach their individual healthcare goals.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and our four dogs, and staying connected to the simple life and all things Northern Michigan has to offer.
