Care Manager

I have been with Duke for eighteen years, where I spent all of that time at Duke Regional Hospital. I have spent my career in the surgery population but have worked with many different types of patients from the most prestigious patient to the least prestigious ones. I like what I do due to the fact that I am making a difference in someone else's life and hopefully that difference is for the better.

I have eleven years of mental health experience and have worked with clients of all ages, races, and backgrounds. What I love most about the work I do is partnering with others while they put in the work to become the best versions of themselves. I enjoy seeing the growth and the confidence blossom in the client's I've had the pleasure to partner with over the years. I look forward to continuing to witness this growth with future clients.
