Background
I grew up just a few miles from SAMA Healthcare in the Parkers Chapel area, and I graduated from Parkers Chapel High School before earning my bachelor’s degree from the University of Central Arkansas from 2004-2008. I completed medical school and at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences from 2008-2013. From there, I did my residency from 2013-2016 UAMS South Family Medicine Residency Program in Magnolia, AR. While completing residency, I was happily rewarded Resident of the Year in 2015.
In my spare time, I enjoy being with family, traveling and watching sports – in particular, Duke Blue Devil basketball, Indianapolis Colts football and of course, the Arkansas Razorbacks!
I love the diversity of family medicine and being able to take care of people of all ages. As a native of El Dorado, I am proud to serve my hometown.
