I grew up in Roanoke, Virginia, and spent several years in the Washington, D.C., metro area and Atlanta, GA, before moving to Colorado with my husband in May 2021. We now live in Littleton with our dog, Toby, and our daughter, Kylie, who was born in May 2025.
I have always known I wanted a career in healthcare. Science and medicine have been passions of mine for as long as I can remember, and becoming a PA has allowed me to make a meaningful impact in my patients’ lives. I am inspired by the flexibility and scope of the PA profession. I am proud of what I have accomplished thus far and look forward to what is yet to come.
I completed my Master of Medical Science in Physician Assistant Studies at Mercer University in Atlanta in May 2021. Before that, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Human Nutrition, Foods and Exercise Science from Virginia Tech with a minor in Psychology in May 2017.
Before joining an ENT practice, I had a personal experience as a patient in an ENT clinic that had a major impact on my life. That time shaped my decision to work in this field. I aim to create that same positive experience for my own patients. I enjoy building strong rapport and value the mix of medical management and hands-on procedures that ENT offers.
Before my current role, I worked as a Physician Assistant in Pulmonary and Sleep Medicine at National Jewish Health. In that position, I evaluated and managed patients with a wide range of acute and chronic conditions, including COPD, asthma, hypoxemia, chronic cough, sleep apnea, insomnia, and narcolepsy, among other things.
Outside of the clinic, you can usually find my family and me skiing in the winter or hiking and camping in the summer. I am an avid reader and podcast listener and am always open to recommendations. Most mornings, I am at the gym before clinic, and I end my days soaking up time with my amazing little family.
