About Me

I am a Jacksonville native and moved to the Beaches after Nursing School in 1982. My oldest daughter lives close by with my two grandsons with who I am usually with, if not at work. Our favorite place to visit is the happiest place on earth, Disneyworld. My Youngest daughter lives in Denver CO and returns home to visit 3-4 times a year. My philosophy of care is to remember patient care is a privilege and to build a positive relationship on trust, mutual respect, communication and understanding over time.

I have worked for Baptist Health as an RN at the Beaches hospital and APRN in Primary care. As a native of Jacksonville, I am aware of other Health Systems in town and I chose Baptist Health. Mainly because I was an RN at the Beach where I live and took care of patients in our community I wanted to be able to provide primary care to help prevent hospitalizations and recurrent hospitalizations in our community.

I chose BH in 2014 when Baptist Beaches hospitalist started a program that aligned with my goals of becoming an APRN in the Beaches community. The care program to prevent re-hospitalizations developed into home-based primary care for the elderly in the community. I have worked for BH for almost 9 years and recommend BH Primary Care, Specialists and Hospitals because of the improved coordination of care that improves patient outcomes.
