About Me

I am originally from Montana and moved to Washington state in 1970. I currently live in southwest Washington with my wife. I obtained my Master of Nursing from Washington State University in 2002.

About my practice

I have worked for Kaiser Permanente in various capacities, from being a registered nurse for inpatient pediatric and intensive care unit patients to caring for outpatients. I am currently working in pediatrics and family practice. I like taking care of families and getting to know everyone; I feel this provides the best care. I have been a Nurse Practitioner since 2002 and provide care to members of all ages. I work in an outpatient clinic with support from family practice, internal medicine, and pediatric providers, as well as all specialities within Kaiser Permanente. I believe that this team-approach helps me provide the best possible care to patients, their families, and supports systems.

How I thrive

I enjoy working on my farm and reading fiction and mystery novels. I spend a lot of time with my family and truly enjoy their company.
