Hope lights the way even in the darkest of times.”
Introduction
Welcome to your Better Tomorrow! I am one of the principal providers of our practice. I have been a certified physician assistant for 9 years and have spent almost all of that time working in various subspecialties of psychiatry, in both inpatient and outpatient settings. In 2022 I was awarded a Certificate of Advanced Qualification in Psychiatry, which is the most advanced formal certification currently offered to psychiatric physician assistants and earned by less than 3% of all PAs in the United States. I am an enthusiastic participant in the World Federation of ADHD and World Congress of Psychiatry.
Biography
Originally from the East Coast, I moved to Washington in 2015 to attend Heritage University Physician Assistant School and have remained in the Evergreen State since then. I completed clinical rotations at Yale University, Lifeways Oregon, and Hartford Healthcare/SVMC and then chose to begin my working career in psychiatry in Washington state. My experiences training in rural and medically underserved areas across the Pacific Northwest instilled in me a passion for providing high-quality psychiatric care to all populations. Since 2018 I have worked almost exclusively in inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings, providing care across the acuity spectrum and developing a holistic and comprehensive knowledge base that brings me enormous joy to share with my patients.
