Bio

I have always gravitated towards opportunities where I may foster the importance of mental health and wellness within the practice of medicine. In me, you will find a provider dedicated to treating the patient as a whole, and a willingness to adapt to each patient’s specific needs.

I strive to empower patients with the techniques and tools needed to access a more healthful and mindful lifestyle. I am committed to actively listening to patients so that they feel supported and involved in their individualized care. I hope to encourage patients to advocate for their mental health, and accompany them on their journey to wellness. I integrate treatment of mental health issues with a comprehensive, patient-centered approach. I am focused on supporting patients by providing excellent education and resources to promote overall health and well-being.

I am a licensed and board-certified physician assistant. My passion for mental health is reflected in my medical and clinical experience and education background. I began my journey at Hope College, where I received my Bachelor of Art in Psychology. I then earned a Master of Medical Science in Physician Assistant Studies at Dominican University.
