I have been a registered nurse in the Grand Rapids community for over 13 years. Becoming a nurse practitioner was another way I could learn and grow professionally. I believe that healthcare should be individualized to the needs and preferences of our patients while serving as an advocate and providing safe, evidence-based care. I am excited to continue my career at Grand Itasca, a facility that shares the same values and beliefs in patient-centered care that I do in my practice.

In my free time, I enjoy traveling, camping, reading, and running long distances with friends.
