About us

I currently provide patient care as a physician assistant (PA) in Bariatric Surgery with Dr. Neil McDevitt. To this role, I bring the experience of working in various surgical subspecialties, emergency medicine, PA education and anesthesiology. \n I have always wanted to work in healthcare, and finally found my niche when employed in Pediatric Cardiology to help pay for college. During that time, I met a Physician Assistant (PA) who provided amazing patient-centered care and after spending one day shadowing him, I was hooked on the role of PA. After completing my undergraduate degree at the University of Michigan I completed PA school and then refined my surgical patient care skills in the Norwalk Hospital/Yale University PA Surgical Residency. \n As the role of PAs has evolved, I returned to school to complete my Master in PA Studies as well as more recently completing my Doctorate of Medicine Science with a concentration in healthcare administration as I believe, the better we understand the system in which we provide care, the better we can care for our patients. \n I currently am a homeschool parent and love spending time traveling with my family searching for unique flea market treasures to upcycle.
