Care Coordinator

I’ve been in the healthcare field for almost four years. My favorite thing about working in healthcare is my ability to help others and make a difference in the community.

I have worked as a nursing assistant in Duke University Hospital and as a patient service associate with Duke Primary Care. My goal in life has always been to help others, and joining DukeWELL is a great step in the right direction for that goal. I feel my background has given me some insight into the different areas and interactions patients at Duke Health experience, and I look forward to bringing that knowledge with me into this new chapter of my career with Duke Health.

I’ve been working in the healthcare field since 2021. I originally started at Duke University Hospital, where I worked in patient care services. Providing patients with exceptional care has always been my number one goal, and watching patients heath improve from the services we provide is what keeps me loving the work I do.

I recently earned a BS in behavioral and social sciences. I am also a 2022 graduate of Piedmont Community College with an associate of arts in human services. I am a people person who has background working as a CNA for 29 years and NC peer support for ten years. My experience includes hospitals, law enforcement, drug and alcohol rehabs, outpatient mental health, skilled nursing, homecare, and outreach communities. Helping community members to access resources is my purpose and mission with DukeWELL.

I have been working in healthcare as a CNA for 14 years. My experience is in long-term and ambulatory care. The work I do is rewarding; I get to help others and make a difference in my patients' lives.

I have worked with all ages and enjoy being able to help in any way that I can, from adolescents to the generic population.

I was born and raised in Durham, NC. I did interpreting for almost four years before I started with Duke Health in August 2021. I enjoyed helping our patients get their questions answered as a bilingual concierge for Duke Children’s & Internal Medicine of North Durham for two years. Now with DukeWELL, I hope to continue helping patients obtain great health outcomes by being as thorough as I can on my end. I enjoy sports, such as soccer and volleyball with family and friends.

I am a firm believer in "If you feel good you look good." Our health plays a major role in our day-to-day lives, and everyone deserves to have effective healthcare. It brings me joy knowing that I can make a difference helping others. I graduated from Winston-Salem State University in 2020. I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Physiology and Public Health. I enjoy spending time with my family, shopping, and traveling. With DukeWELL, I am looking forward to assisting individuals to have healthier lifestyles and behaviors.
