Why I chose to pursue a career in healthcare:

I've always had a love of science and so it was through a series of twists and turns in high school that I discovered the PA profession. I spent a number of days shadowing local PAs and from that point on, I knew I had found my career path. I haven't looked back ever since.

What I want my patients to know about me:

I've been a committed provider to the Gettysburg community in our practice since 2003.

What I do when I'm not seeing patients:

My family is very important to me. My husband and I are raising twin daughters, and that always seem to keep us on our toes! I enjoy cooking, nature, hiking and gardening.
