About Me

I have been a registered nurse since 1993 and have spent the majority of that time in women's health. I pursued my midwifery degree after having an amazing nurse midwife deliver my second, third, and fourth child. Those experiences changed my life and I wanted to offer women that same care. I have been a nurse midwife since 1999 and am honored to be with families during this very important part of their lives. In addition, I provide gynecological care for women throughout the teen to menopausal age group. In my free time, I enjoy running, travel, and spending time with my family. I have been married for 29 years and have four children. I am excited about joining the advanced practice providers of Duke University.
