Education: Arizona State University

Clinic: Tempe

I have been in the field of pediatrics since 2006 when I completed my RN degree. I went into pediatric healthcare because I truly love working with this special population. I think children are so resilient and honest, and it is incredibly rewarding being able to watch them grow and help them develop into healthy adults. I love Mountain Park because they really care about the community. They work hard to reduce barriers to healthcare, and they keep up with healthcare trends and the newest guidelines for best practice. Finally, I love that they care about their employees and our well-being – I couldn’t be happier with this organization!

A little about me. Fitness and a healthy lifestyle are top priorities for me and something I enjoy teaching my patients about when talking about health promotion and illness prevention. I’m a family girl too, and they are the center of my world. I think what makes me-me is that I was raised by two awesome parents. They gave my brother and me an amazing and well-rounded upbringing. They believed we could do anything we wanted, but also made sure that we worked hard. Because of them, I was able to put in the dedication needed to obtain my doctorate degree and find a career I love.
