Care Coordinator

I am a Durham native with a passion for healthcare. I have been with Duke for 28 years, and I am excited to continue with DukeWELL.

I am a wife, mother of two adult daughters, and the grandmother of five. I am a 2008 breast cancer survivor, and I am coming to Duke after 25 years at Rex-UNC. I have lots of knowledge and experience I am bringing with me and hoping to add to that knowledge and experience. I am so excited for this new venture and most appreciative for the opportunity.

I am a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where I earned degrees in Psychology and Public Policy. From a young age, I saw how access to essential resources can transform lives, sparking my lifelong passion for supporting underserved communities—especially within the healthcare sector. I am excited to kickstart my career at DukeWELL, where I hope to make a meaningful impact by connecting patients to vital resources that can improve their overall health and well-being!

I am a North Carolina native, hailing from Selma. I graduated from UNC Chapel Hill in 2020 with a degree in Exercise & Sport Science and have been interested in healthcare from a young age. I enjoy working with diverse patient populations and ensuring that they are receiving the care they need to best support their health outcomes. With every patient interaction, I hope to build a relationship that enables my DukeWELL coworkers and I to work alongside our patients to improve their health.

I was born and raised in North Carolina and originally from a small town named Whiteville. I am currently in school seeking a Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work with hopes to obtain a Master’s Degree to become an LCSW. I have been in healthcare for over twenty years with experience in the mental health and intellectual/developmental disabilities field. I am most looking forward to expanding my reach by working with DukeWELL to make more of an impact.

I have extensive experience as a team lead for patient services, where I have managed a dedicated team to ensure the highest level of care and support for our patients. What I love most about my work is the opportunity to make a positive impact on patients' lives and the satisfaction of knowing our team is providing essential support during critical times.

I come from many years of healthcare. I have a love for helping, growing relationships, and making a difference in others lives as much as I possibly can.

I was born and raised in Chapel Hill, NC. I graduated from UNC Chapel Hill, earning a Bachelors of Arts in Biology. I have worked within the medical field for over twenty years. I have always had a passion to help people and my community thrive and live healthy lives. I am grateful to be able to join a team that shares the same passion.
