My Story. My Family.

How I became interested in genetics, Functional Medicine and Hormones

I've been a Nurse Practitioner since 2012.  I worked in internal medicine with some of the most chronically ill patients in my area.  I knew from the beginning the healthcare I knew was missing something.  After a few years, I shifted my focus to my family and their well-being, health and education.  My two daughters both had health concerns that had no easy answer and certainly no answer I was finding in mainstream medicine. In 2020, just before the pandemic, our third daughter was born.  She was born with a genetic disease called Galactosemia.  This is a rare, metabolic disease.  There is some research and some genetic specialists in our country, but the answers to the varied outcomes of children are lacking.  This was the beginning of my personal and professional journey in functional medicine.  For the past five years, I've been practicing functional medicine after doing basic functional medicine training through IFM.  However, I still wanted to know more about how to further prevent illness and determine risks long before we see disease process.  I knew our varying genetic make-ups are a big part of the answer; the ultimate root cause.  In 2023, I completed a certification for DNA Health genetic testing.  Then, due to not having enough answers for my patients, in 2025 I went on to complete Functional Medicine Certification through the The Kharrazian Institute and Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy Certification through World Link. 
 I am so excited to help you through your health journey and get back to thriving!
