About Me

I’m originally from Albania and have proudly called Jacksonville home since I was two years old. It’s where I grew up, built my life and now have the privilege of caring for the same community that has given so much to me. My husband and I are raising our three children here, and they are the greatest joy in our lives. Outside of work, you’ll almost always find me with my family. We love exploring the outdoors, whether that’s hiking in the Blue Ridge Mountains, spending a day at the beach or enjoying time together on the boat. I also have a passion for weightlifting, which has taught me the importance of strength, perseverance and taking care of both my physical and mental well-being.

Family, faith, compassion and living a healthy, balanced life are values that are important to me and influence the way I care for my patients. My goal is to make every person who walks through the door feel heard, respected and supported. I look forward to building lasting relationships with the families I have the opportunity to serve. I became a nurse practitioner because I genuinely enjoy building relationships with people and helping them feel their best at every stage of life. I believe healthcare should be a partnership, where patients feel comfortable asking questions, understand their treatment options and are actively involved in decisions about their care. My goal is not only to treat illness but also to focus on prevention, education and creating realistic plans that fit each person’s lifestyle.

What I enjoy most about primary care is the opportunity to care for the whole person, not just a diagnosis. Whether I’m helping someone manage diabetes, achieve sustainable weight loss, manage a chronic condition, navigate the aging process or simply stay healthy, I find it incredibly rewarding to see patients make progress and improve their quality of life. I want every patient to leave feeling heard, respected and confident that they have a provider who genuinely cares about their health and is committed to supporting them for years to come.
