North Tucson, AZ
“I am honored to be able to help serve others through my career, and I am grateful for the opportunity to build relationships with so many wonderful individuals from our community, each with their own unique story.”
I grew up in small town Bellevue, Iowa right along the Mississippi river before attending St. Ambrose University for my undergraduate degree. From there, I attended the PA program at Des Moines University. My fiancé and I moved to Tucson for the beautiful scenery and warm weather. I can’t wait to build a community of patients and enjoy everything Tucson has to offer both professionally and personally!
Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies at Des Moines University
Bachelor’s degree in Biology with a Biomedical Science Concentration and double minor in Psychology and Chemistry from St. Ambrose University
American Academy of Physician Assistants, National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants
Throughout my years in high school and college, I worked as an optometry patient technician, as a CNA in a long-term care facility, and as a patient care technician on the surgical specialty unit. Then, I attended Des Moines University for my physician assistant training, where I completed rotations in general surgery, cardiology, urgent care, pediatrics, psychiatry, neurology, family medicine, internal medicine, rheumatology, women’s health, and emergency medicine.
I enjoy spending time with family and friends, as well as trying new coffee shops and restaurants. I also enjoy relaxing at the pool and going for hikes.
A great provider is one that is privileged with great patients.
