At Sanitas, my pediatric patients are given excellent healthcare in a friendly environment. A good day at work means I’m able to ease a parent’s concerns while providing excellent and efficient service for my young patients. A good day also means I’m able to educate my patients, and their parents, about their medical conditions, empowering them to take charge of their health. 

I lived in the Whitehaven area of Memphis since the age of five and graduated from Whitehaven High School. Being able to serve my community is a privilege that I do not take lightly. It's an honor to give back to the community that gave me support in my younger years from awesome teachers, neighbors, and spiritual leaders. My mom, a registered nurse, inspired my decision for a medical career. She would often come home and tell my siblings and me stories from her workday. These stories were the initial spark that ignited my love for medicine. Combining my compassion for others and love of the sciences made becoming a doctor the perfect career path for me.  

When I take off my coat, I enjoy spending time with my three daughters. The pandemic has reminded me that time with family is sometimes taken for granted and has given me a different outlook on life.
