I am a family medicine and Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM) physician at University Health.
Education
I earned my medical degree from the University of North Texas Health Science Center Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine. I then completed a combined family medicine and Osteopathic Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine (ONMM) degree at the University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth and Medical City Fort Worth. I also have a master’s degree in public health with a concentration in community health and a master’s degree in applied anthropology with a concentration in medical anthropology.
I was inspired to be a physician from a very young age, seeing how the health of family members impact the whole family, and also as a result of working in public health research and community health.
Philosophy of Care
I am committed to providing a holistic and evidence-based approach to patient care, incorporating osteopathic principles and practice, and teaching. I value the importance of community in supporting health.
My favorite things about practicing medicine are seeing patients' health improve and seeing how resilient people are. I also enjoy teaching and seeing students learn and develop as practitioners.
Areas of Clinical Expertise
  • Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine
  • Public health
  • Research
  • Medical education
In my free time I enjoy reading and practicing yoga.
Awards and Recognitions
I earned the Quality Improvement in Education Research Award from the American Osteopathic Association.
In recognition of contributions that have advanced the osteopathic profession through the Journal of Osteopathic Medicine. “Development of Osteopathic Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine (ONMM) Residency Curriculum Guidelines to Meet Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Milestones.” October 2022.
