Growing up as the child of an Air Force pilot, I had the unique experience of living in 13 states and even overseas before settling in Louisiana during my high school and college years. There I discovered a passion for sports, especially track & field. I excelled in the 110-high hurdles, breaking many records across the southeast region and ultimately secured the national champion title in 2012. I accepted a full-ride scholarship to Louisiana State University to study Pre-med. There I trained daily with Olympians and I was determined to make it there myself. Exercise, nutrition, and health became my entire focus. Unfortunately, my racing career was continuously stunted by sports injuries. Spending so much time in the rehab center with physical therapists and athletic trainers sparked an interest in holistic care. At the same time, shadowing medical doctors left me discouraged at modern medicine, where care is more often dictated by insurance companies than the doctors. In discovering the field of chiropractic medicine, I found a fit for my desire to teach people how to achieve optimal wellness through natural & holistic means.   

Attending Palmer College of Chiropractic, my experience & training has prepared me to provide the highest quality of care with techniques including Gonstead, Thompson, Diversified, Activator, Flexion-Distraction, and more. After meeting my wife, we moved to Naples to be closer to family and to build up a family practice together and promote healthier lifestyles for our community.

Health and wellness have always been important parts of my life. Growing up in a large family that valued a holistic approach to well-being, I developed an early appreciation for how lifestyle, nutrition, and preventive care impact overall health. This natural interest led me to pursue a degree in health science at Ave Maria University. During this time, I explored various internships to help discern the best career path. As I gained experience in counseling, teaching, and healthcare, I realized that medicine was the perfect culmination of these other fields, as being a provider requires educating, counseling, and guiding patients toward better health. This realization led me to pursue a master’s degree in Physician Assistant Studies at FSU College of Medicine.

Early in my career, I saw the limitations of conventional medicine—where symptom management often took priority over addressing root causes. While working in a holistic family practice, I witnessed firsthand how functional medicine could transform lives by treating chronic conditions like mold toxicity, adrenal fatigue, gut dysbiosis, hormonal imbalances and much more. Through nutrition, detoxification, and targeted therapies, patients achieved long-term wellness rather than temporary relief.

Now, with years of experience in both primary care and functional medicine, I am thrilled to co-found Harmony Health Clinic with my husband. My goal is to empower patients to take control of their health using food as medicine, supplements as support, and pharmaceuticals only when truly necessary. I’m excited to share this passion with the community and help patients achieve lasting wellness.
