Prior to going to PA school in my 30’s; I had a bachelor’s in education working in the Choctaw Nation Educational program. I wanted to work in the medical field since I was a young child. The Physician Associate route seemed like the best fit for me. I believe that providers need to educate their patients so that the patient can have ownership of their own health and wellness. I have worked for Caring Hands twice in my career, with the current time starting December of 2020. I love the team approach at Caring Hands and the resources to help patients with such a wide range of services. I see all patients including Family Planning and Women’s Health.
