Meeting women where they are: "I’ve been caring for patients since 2012, when I became a nurse at 21 years old with a passion for helping others. My career has taken me through nursing homes, correctional healthcare, inpatient psychiatric units, travel nursing, and academic settings. In 2021, I became a nurse practitioner and earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice degree from Wilmington University. I continued my work in psychiatric and regenerative medicine, experiences that reinforced my belief that the best care begins with listening and understanding the whole person."

The power of being present: "One experience that continues to shape me involved a hospice patient who had only days left to live. He had no family or friends by his side. I sat with him, held his hand, listened to his story, and reassured him that it was okay to let go. Being fully present in that moment reminded me that healthcare is not just about treatment, it’s about compassion, connection, and honoring the person in front of you."

Looking beyond the labs: "Many women come to Midi after being told that everything looks normal, yet they still don’t feel like themselves. I love helping women understand that their concerns are real and worthy of attention. My holistic approach focuses on the whole person, not just test results. To me, empowerment means giving women the knowledge, support, and confidence to make the healthiest decisions for their minds and bodies."

Outside the clinic: "I’m active in my church community, a proud mother of two daughters, and a lifelong learner. When I’m not working, you can often find me enjoying time at the beach or on the tennis court. These parts of my life keep me grounded and remind me of the importance of balance, connection, and joy."
