As a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of dedicated service in the medical field, I am deeply passionate about promoting the health and well-being of women. My journey began with a Bachelor’s degree in Health from Texas Tech University, where I developed a solid foundation in healthcare principles. This was followed by earning a Bachelor’s in Nursing at The University of Texas Medical Branch, where I honed my clinical skills and gained firsthand experience in patient care.

Driven by a commitment to both patient care and education, I pursued further academic endeavors, obtaining a Master’s in Nursing Education and Management from Western Governors University. This equipped me with the tools to not only deliver exceptional healthcare but also to inspire and empower the next generation of nurses.

Recognizing the importance of specialized knowledge in women’s health, I obtained a post-master’s certificate as a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner from the University of South Alabama. This allowed me to focus specifically on addressing the unique healthcare needs of women across all stages of life, from adolescence to menopause and beyond.

In addition to my clinical work, I am actively involved in various professional societies, including the Obesity Medicine Association, The Menopause Society, and the International Society for the Study of Women’s Sexual Health, where I serve on the education committee. Through these affiliations, I stay at the forefront of developments in women’s health and contribute to advancing the field through education and advocacy.

Furthermore, I am proud to be a Certified Continuing Education Provider for nurses, facilitating ongoing learning and professional development within the nursing community. By combining my clinical expertise, passion for women’s health, and commitment to education, I strive to make a meaningful difference in the lives of women and contribute to the advancement of healthcare for all.
