Overview
I became a clinician after observing my grandparents' care by their heart teams. As a teen and young adult, I was able to see firsthand their improvement in quality of life. This observation first prompted me to obtain my BSN and then become a CNP. My goal is to treat the whole patient and always take into account their wishes and those of their loved ones. I specialize in electrophysiology, atrial and ventricular arrhythmias, pacemakers and implantable cardiac defibrillators.
