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 have resided in Jacksonville, Florida, for the majority of my life. I am married and have 1 daughter who serves in the United States Navy. My family plays an important role in my life, and I truly value the time we spend together.

I enjoy the outdoors, the warm weather allows for bicycling, hiking trails and gardening. In the winter months, I have a passion for skiing. These activities help me relax, stay creative, and recharge.

My philosophy of care is centered around compassion, evidence-based practice and patient empowerment. I believe that every individual deserves to be seen, heard and respected. I strive to build trusting relationships, provide culturally sensitive care, and support patients in making informed decisions about their health.
