Education
Chamberlain University, Master of Science in Nursing, PMHNP, 2024 — My path to psychiatric care is grounded in a deep clinical history, starting with ten years as a registered nurse dedicated to hands-on patient support. I then completed a rigorous, specialty-focused Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) program. This PMHNP training included dedicated, intensive coursework in both psychopharmacology and therapeutic modalities—an educational focus that ensures I bring a truly comprehensive and expert perspective to managing your mental health and well-being.
Work HistoryMy clinical foundation is built on ten years of nursing experience in a specialized Critical Care setting, focused on neurology. Working closely with patients facing complex neurological and psychiatric conditions ignited my passion for the pathophysiology of the brain and its profound role in wellness. This unique, hands-on insight inspired me to pursue dedicated training as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), ensuring my care is grounded in both deep medical knowledge and a holistic understanding of mental health.
