Practice

I have been working at the Doctors Clinic since 1997. I started out as a nursing aid, then a nurse, and am now our nurse practitioner on staff since 2004.

Personal note

I enjoy basketball, volleyball, skiing, and four wheeling. I spend most of my time with immediate and extended family, but spend my Saturday mornings off doing pet therapy at the nursing home. I am the proud mother of three, one boy (Kaleb) and two girls (Devin and Mia), and happily married to my own personal fireman and all around Renaissance man.

Mia, my youngest daughter, had to undergo heart surgery at 6 months of age on January 16, 2008 for a congenital heart defect. Since then, she has continued to blossom with regular check ups to the cardiologist. Special thanks to everyone who supported our family during that crisis in Dallas. Wreck 'em Tech!!!
