I am a born and bred Texan, and I have spent the last 25 years in Fort Worth. My education and clinical experience are diverse. After completing a BA in Psychology in 1994, I decided to go to nursing school. I became a Registered Nurse in 1997, and a Family Nurse Practitioner in 2009. I have worked in surgery, behavioral health, and Neuro intensive care as a RN. My experience as a Family Nurse Practitioner started in Internal Medicine, and then transitioned into Family Practice and Pediatrics for the past 10 years.

I am launching Panacea Functional Health as a way to spend more time with patients who want to unravel the “why” of their symptoms, and to dig deeper into labs that you can’t get at your PCP’s office (I know, because I am a PCP). However, the MAIN reason is I want to help you learn how you can heal yourself, using healthy foods, clean water, movement and self-care methods. I want to be your health strategist, nutrition coach, and cheerleader all in one!
