My path to family medicine began early. Growing up in rural central Idaho, I saw how Nurse Practitioners often served as the only health care providers in their communities. Their presence inspired me as a teenager to pursue nursing. During my training, I was drawn to family medicine because of the long-term relationships it builds, often spanning generations. Today, it is an honor to serve families in my own community in that same way.

Outside of work, my husband and I love spending time outdoors with our two young boys. We enjoy mountain biking, hiking, running, paddle boarding, camping, and exploring the beautiful spaces around our home. If you’re out on the local trails, you might even see me running with my little dog, Lluna.
