About Me

I moved to Jacksonville to be closer to my family. My husband, who is also a Florida native, is a board-certified neurologist and an MD who specializes in visual problems related to the nervous system. We decided to return to our roots after practicing in Georgia for several years. We enjoy taking our son on new adventures and spending time outdoors including spending time at the beach, biking, swimming, and walking.

I enjoy meeting new patients and believe that taking the time to listen to patients is crucial in their diagnosis and treatment plan. My goal is to provide compassionate care to patients in order to educate them and their family members on their diagnosis and to help them in the best possible way.
