What area of the healthcare field interests you most?
Endocrinology. I worked in endocrinology for eight years before coming to the Population Health Department. This was an amazing experience—learning and seeing how so many body systems were interconnected. One small change would affect another body system. This helped me to look at the whole patient and not just the issue at hand.

What do you enjoy most about your job with AHG’s Population Health Department?
I enjoy getting to see the rural parts of South Louisiana that I might never have had a chance to see otherwise. The members who we see are very appreciative of the services we provide.

What are some personal details about yourself you’d like to include?
I enjoy spending time with my family, gardening, hiking, visiting national parks and playing golf.
