Advanced Practice Providers

Nurse Practitioners (APRNs) and Physician Assistants (PAs) are an important part of the Baptist Health team and help us increase timely access to care.

You'll see these advanced practice providers caring for patients in a variety of medical specialties at doctor's offices, hospitals, outpatient centers and emergency rooms. They have advanced medical education and work closely with physicians to diagnose and treat patients, and even prescribe medication.

About Me

I was called to medicine after caring for my diabetic grandmother. I have resided in Jacksonville since 2007 and my family and I love to spend time outdoors, going to the beach and observing wildlife in their natural habitats.

My philosophy of care is to educate my patients on living their best life through disease prevention and urging them to play an integral part in their own health and wellness care plan.

I believe all people deserve excellent care and I have made it my goal to be a liaison for minorities and those who are statistically prone to health disparities. I have served as the director of a health ministry at my church and serve on the executive board of my nursing sorority.
