My path to medicine was anything but traditional.

I began my healthcare career as a Hospital Corpsman (Medic) in the United States Navy, where I developed a deep appreciation for serving others and caring for patients during some of their most vulnerable moments. During my military service, however, my own health began to decline. I struggled with fatigue, digestive issues, anxiety, depression, chronic sinus infections, and other symptoms despite being told that my laboratory work was "normal." Eventually, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition and realized that conventional medicine alone was not providing the answers I was searching for.

It was through my own health journey that I discovered the power of Naturopathic medicine. Working with an integrative Physician who looked beyond my symptoms and searched for the underlying causes of my illness completely changed the trajectory of my life. As I began to heal, I became passionate about understanding the connection between nutrition, lifestyle, environment, and chronic disease.

While owning and operating a small sustainable farm in Colorado and pursuing a Master's degree in Nutrition at the University of Colorado, I became increasingly fascinated by the body's innate ability to heal when given the right support. During that time, our community was affected by what was then the largest home-loss wildfire in Colorado history. Experiencing firsthand how quickly life can change inspired me to pursue medicine and dedicate my career to helping others.

After medical school, I had the privilege of working at a Naturopathic cancer treatment center, where I witnessed the profound impact of combining evidence-based medicine with a whole-person approach to care. Eventually, that journey brought me to Prescott, Arizona, where I founded Prescott Integrative Medicine with a simple mission: to help patients achieve vibrant health by addressing the root causes of illness rather than simply managing symptoms.

Today, I enjoy helping patients uncover the underlying causes of hormone imbalances, thyroid disorders, autoimmune conditions, digestive issues, fatigue, and other chronic health concerns. My goal is to partner with patients, listen to their story, and develop personalized treatment plans that support the body's innate ability to heal. I believe healthcare should focus on identifying and addressing the root causes of illness rather than simply managing symptoms. Every patient has a unique story, and I am passionate about helping individuals understand their bodies, restore balance, and support the body's innate capacity for healing.

My approach combines modern science, functional medicine, nutrition, and Naturopathic therapies while empowering patients with the knowledge and tools they need to actively participate in their own healing journey. I am also trained in Acupuncture and Chinese medicine. I believe symptoms are not simply problems to suppress—they are messages that can guide us toward deeper healing and better health-True health. 

When I am not in the clinic, I enjoy growing in my faith as a Christian, spending time with my husband, training our four dogs, and researching the latest developments in health, nutrition, and integrative medicine. I never expected to fall in love with a cowboy and the town of Prescott, Arizona, but I am deeply in love with both. I am a lifelong learner who believes that true healing involves caring for the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.

It is a privilege to care for patients and to walk alongside them as they pursue healthier, fuller, and more vibrant lives.
