I am deeply passionate about the field of dermatology because it provides the unique opportunity to make a profound and lasting impact on patients’ lives. As the largest organ in the body, the skin plays a critical role in overall health and well-being. Dermatology enables me to enhance both the physical health and emotional well-being of patients, improving their quality of life and boosting their personal confidence.
After completing my degree, I gained invaluable experience working as a medical assistant and scribe at Southwest Michigan Dermatology for three years. This hands-on role significantly enhanced my understanding of healthcare and fueled my passion for the field, inspiring me to pursue graduate studies. I went on to earn my Master of Science in Physician Associate Studies, with honors, from Keck Graduate Institute in Claremont, California.
When I’m not caring for patients, I enjoy boating in South Haven, volunteering within my community, participating in local arts initiatives, and watching movies at home with my husband and dog.
I am currently accepting new patients and look forward to the opportunity to meet and partner with you!
