Care Coordinator

I was born and raised in Durham, NC. I have been a part of Duke as a certified medical assistant for twelve years. My work at Duke has allowed me to gain valuable knowledge regarding patient care and access to health care. I am excited to be a part of DukeWELL. 

I am a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Pembroke, holding a bachelor’s in psychology with a minor in sociology. I have over eight years experience as a patient services associate. I am a proud Durhamite! I am excited to connect patients with valuable community resources that foster positive health outcomes and enhance their quality of life. 

I am originally from Arkansas but have lived in North Carolina for over 16 years now. I have many years of experience working as a medical coordinator for geriatrics with ID. I have a passion for taking care of others and enjoy helping people connect with resources they need. I am excited to start my career here at PHMO.

I have worked in the customer service field since I was in the ninth grade, and I have developed a passion for helping customers resolve issues while creating a positive image of the company and myself. I’ve proven my ability to listen attentively, solve problems quickly and efficiently, and create good professional relationships with patients. I love providing a safe place for people to receive the help that they need.

I have always thrived on helping others, and with a complicated medical history myself, I know what it is like to receive extraordinary care, and I strive to provide that to others! I love interacting with patients and hopefully making their health journey a little easier and simpler. I have been with Duke for three years and have loved every minute of what I am able to directly provide to my patients. I look forward to assisting with your care.

I attended the University of Akron in Ohio, after which I moved to North Carolina and worked as a medical coder for many years at UNC. Although I enjoyed working there and the work I did, I am looking forward to assisting patients in this new capacity here at the better shade of blue.
