I’m a practicing family nurse practitioner here in the Nashville/ middle TN area. Born and raised Nashvillian. Attended Metro-Nashville public schools from kindergarten through high school. I then enrolled at Nashville State Community College and next transferred to Tennessee State University to complete my Bachelor’s degree in psychology. (It was here I met my amazing wife!) Upon graduation I worked for a few years as a social worker at a local Head Start. After some time and reflection I then decided to pursue a career in medicine. This eventually lead me to Vanderbilt University School of Nursing where I completed a Master’s degree in Nursing with concentration in family practice.
