My healthcare journey began as a medical transcriptionist before I became a registered nurse. I spent more than 20 years working as an RN, including 11 years as a travel nurse, which ultimately inspired me to continue my education.

I was drawn to Mountain Park because of its strong focus on community health and caring for patients who face barriers to accessing healthcare. After working in Arizona over the years, I’m grateful to now serve patients here.

When you meet with me, you can expect a collaborative and respectful experience. I take time to listen carefully, work with you toward your health goals, and communicate in a way that’s easy to understand so you feel informed and supported in your care. I believe high‑quality healthcare is rooted in dignity and equity, and I strive to ensure every patient feels seen, safe, and valued, with particular attention to supporting the LGBTQ+ community.

Outside of work, I love being outdoors. I enjoy hiking, paddleboarding, gardening, and growing my own food. Wellness is central to my life, from mindful nutrition and strength training to yoga and mindfulness coaching.

A fun fact about me is that I grew up in Ras Tanura, Saudi Arabia, which sparked my love of travel. I’ve also lived on three Hawaiian Islands—Kauaʻi, the Big Island, and Maui, which I called home for ten years and still return to often.
