Who I Am

I am a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of critical care nursing experience in ICU, ER, cardiovascular, and medical-surgical settings. I hold a Master's in Nursing and a Master's in Clinical Herbal Medicine, a combination that allows me to offer patients something most providers can't: rigorous, evidence-based medical care with the option of integrative herbal and lifestyle support.

Before launching my own practice, I spent two decades caring for some of the most complex and vulnerable patients in hospital medicine, managing ventilators, cardiac drips, trauma cases, and thousands of bedside encounters. That background gave me a deep understanding of how the body works under pressure and a clinical instinct that carries into every telehealth visit I provide today.

Now accepting patients across Utah via telehealth, I offer medical weight management with FDA-approved GLP-1 medications, diabetes prevention and management, chronic disease care, acute illness visits, and comprehensive wellness visits. Every visit gets the time and attention that most 10-minute office appointments can't provide.

What makes my practice different is the integrative option. For patients who are interested, I can incorporate evidence-based herbal support for blood sugar balance, stress, sleep, digestion, and immune health alongside conventional treatment. This isn't required, but available for those who want a more whole-person approach to their care.

I believe that true healing means treating the whole patient, not just the lab values. I build real relationships with the people I care for, creating space for open communication and shared decision-making. Whether you're starting a weight loss program, managing a chronic condition, or exploring herbal wellness for the first time, I am a trusted partner in your health journey, bringing the thoroughness of critical care and the wisdom of plant medicine to every visit.
