I am a Family Nurse Practitioner who is passionate about providing high quality health care and encouraging my patients to take an active role in managing their physical and mental wellness. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Abilene Christian University, and I furthered my education at the University of Texas at Arlington by earning a Master of Science in Nursing, Family Nurse Practitioner. My national Family Nurse Practitioner certification is through the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP), and I have experience in Family Practice and Urgent Care medicine, as well as Emergency Room nursing. As a Nurse Practitioner, I am an advocate for my patients to ensure they have the resources they need to make the best decisions for their own health. Actively participating in medical missions and sharing the love and grace of Jesus with everyone I meet is important to me and influences me daily. I try to find joy in every situation and want to help others do the same.
