About Me
I’m a Nurse Practitioner on the Urology team at MetroHealth, where I focus on sexual medicine and gender-affirming surgery. Before becoming an NP, I spent 16 years working as a registered nurse, and I bring that deep experience and compassion into every patient interaction. I graduated from Ursuline College and joined MetroHealth in 2019.
I’m passionate about making healthcare accessible to everyone. I serve on the board of a local nonprofit dedicated to reducing cultural and language barriers to care in Cuyahoga County, with a vision of equitable healthcare for refugees, immigrants, and migrants. Whether I’m in the clinic or out in the community, my mission is to help people feel most themselves—safe, seen, and supported in their bodies and lives.
