Born in Thibodaux, LA, I obtained a Bachelor of Science at The University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg, MS (2000) and a Masters of Science in Physician Assistant Studies at South University in Savannah, GA (2005). My credentials are Physician Assistant Certification (NCCPA) and Athletic Trainer Certification (BOC). I have worked at The Sinuplasty Center of Excellence since 2006. My ENT interests range from allergic rhinitis and sinus disease to problems of the ears and thyroid.  I enjoy working with both pediatric and geriatric populations, and find it truly gratifying helping patients feel better. My outside interests revolved around spending time with my family, tennis and sewing.

I was born in Springfield, OH, and then moved to Ocean Springs, MS in 1983. Graduated from MGCCC with my Associates Degree in 1995 and I am registered through the ARRT with credentials in radiography and computed tomography. My career began at Ocean Springs Hospital, and then moved to The Sinuplasty Center of Excellence in 2002. Patient care is my highest priority and I truly enjoy being a significant part of each patient's health care experience.  I love the fact that CT has moved beyond the hospital and into an office setting where patient care has the opportunity to be much more personal.  I am fortunate to work in a field that I love, with people I love, and in a great atmosphere. In my free time, I enjoy reading and spending time with my husband and children.

Originally from Upstate New York, I attended LeMoyne College followed by joining the Air Force in 1983. During my Air Force career, I spent nearly 12 years as a Surgical and Otolaryngology Technician and was stationed in Mississippi, Texas, California, Alaska and England. In 1998, I returned to Mississippi and joined The Sinuplasty Center of Excellence. Working in the medical career field for the past 27 years has been particularly enjoyable if for no other reason than the opportunity to meet, and hopefully help so many people. I am happily married to Natalie, an RN at Cedar Lake Surgery Center, with whom we have 5 sons, and together we enjoy photography, cooking, gardening and bicycling.
