I am an advanced practice registered nurse in the Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry.

As part of a multidisciplinary team that uses a neurobehavioral continuum approach to care, I work with children who have complex psychiatric needs. I previously worked with this population for six years as an inpatient nurse. My love for these children, young adults and their families inspired me to become a nurse practitioner.

My philosophy is to be open and honest with my families. I believe communication is key.

In my free time, I love to travel and spend time with my dogs.
