About
Born and raised in Houston. A career built at the bedside, in the classroom, and on the page.

I am a Family Nurse Practitioner with over fifteen years of experience in clinic, hospital, virtual, and home settings, working with patients across the lifespan.
I currently practice telemedicine at Ways2Well, a cash-pay clinic, and am licensed in six states — including the great state of Texas. Born and raised in Houston, I graduated from Houston Christian University in 2011. From there, I worked at Houston Methodist, a major teaching hospital, for nearly a decade as a registered nurse in the operating room, before graduating from NP school at UT Health Science Center in 2020.
Outside of work, I like to read about history, play the viola, and relax with my cat. I am a member of several professional and non-profit organizations that promote and support nurses and civic engagement. I am uniquely placed at the crossroads where health meets politics and want to use my knowledge and experience to bring awareness and education to my fellow healthcare workers and anyone who uses the healthcare system in America.
