About Me
I work with general neurology patients and encounter a variety of neurologic conditions. I'm passionate about this patient population because no two patients share the same story and I am driven by the opportunity to individualize the treatment plans through shared decision making. In addition to providing care for patients with general neurologic conditions, I also provide Botox injections for migraine and spasticity management. While I don't currently have many years of neurology practice under my belt, I had the amazing opportunity to study in the Neurology APP Residency Program at Duke and learn/train with the best. I grew immensely as an individual and as a provider during this time and am excited to carry that experience into the interactions with my patients. When I'm not in the clinic, I enjoy time with family and friends, staying active outside, strength training, attempting to have a green thumb, and cooking/baking.
