I was born in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois and lived on the east coast and the Chicagoland area prior to settling in Knoxville, Tennessee. I am proud to be a part of a genuinely compassionate team that is providing excellent care to the community. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with family and my beagle, Bailey. I am thankful for the opportunity to work in a wonderful area with a caring group of doctors and staff.
