I was born and raised in Lakeland, Florida. After completing my undergraduate studies at FAMU in Tallahassee, I returned to Lakeland in 2019. I am a team-oriented person who values clear and open communication. My journey in nursing began after witnessing my grandfather suffer complications due to inadequate care at a local nursing home. I wanted to ensure patients receive the attention they deserve. Over time, I realized that quality care starts in primary care, where we can prevent future health issues. This led me to pursue my Family Nurse Practitioner degree. A good day at work means being on time for my patients, giving them my full attention, and fostering open conversations without rushing. I want my patients to know that their voices matter and that their concerns will always be heard. Outside of work, I enjoy freshwater fishing with friends, playing multiplayer video games, and helping organize my family’s reunions. Hunting with my family during the holidays is a cherished tradition.
