I have always been curious about natural human behaviors and experiences. It became quickly apparent to me that in general, there was a dearth of mental health service providers–even less that looked like me or shared a similar background. I decided to be a part of that change.
After completing a Bachelor of Arts degree in 2010, I returned to school and completed my first Masters degree (MSN) in 2012. I then worked as a pediatric, medical surgical and psychiatric nurse respectively for the next 10 years.
In 2018, I returned to school to complete my second Masters degree where I specialized in Psychiatry and Mental Health and earned the title Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Following graduation, I relocated to Cleveland, OH where I completed a residency in psychiatry where I treated veterans and their families struggling with a wide range of psychiatric conditions including depression, anxiety, PTSD, psychosis and others.
My goal has always been to create a safe, comfortable and inclusive space for everyone, especially under-represented groups to receive quality mental health services. Thankfully, I managed to do this by creating Zeal Psychiatry. Welcome.
