I was born in Cincinnati, Ohio and moved to Nashville, Tennessee in 1999. I am proud to have called Nashville my home for over twenty years and have practiced pediatric medicine here since completing my training. I raised my three children here and I enjoy being a part of the community. I decided to go into medicine to serve others and promote healthy choices for my patients. I strive to develop treatment plans and lifestyle modifications that work best for a child’s individual needs. I want to include parents in the medical decision-making process. I have a special interest in developmental issues including ADHD and autism. A good day at work is making my patients smile! I want to see parents satisfied that all their questions are answered, and issues are addressed at each visit. I want you to know that at Sanitas you will receive excellent and compassionate care. We want Sanitas to be your medical home. I want to provide patients with the highest quality of treatment along with preventive care and healthy lifestyle promotions. When I take off my coat, I enjoy spending time with my husband and children. I also love the outdoors! You can find me running in local parks and trails, swimming at Percy Priest Lake, or biking the Natchez Trace.
