Current APP Fellows

"I completed my undergraduate degree at Boston College before returning to my hometown of Atlanta to earn my Doctorate of Nursing Practice at Emory University. I’m passionate about staying active, whether it’s playing pickleball, learning tennis, or running. I was excited to complete my first marathon last November in New York. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, including my two nieces and nephew, my fiancé, and my friends. I also love spending time with my black lab mutt, Murphy, taking him on walks and hikes. I’m excited to join the Winship community and look forward to contributing to the incredible work being done here."

"Before completing my MSN at Emory’s Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing, I accumulated 12+ years of oncology nursing experience in the areas of solid tumor treatment and management as well as navigating psychosocial barriers to care and patient education. I am passionate about the patient experience and have worked within my organizations to create patient support programs, to advocate for patients facing financial toxicity, and to help patients access clinical trials and treatments. I received the 2017 Crump Award for Oncology Nursing, was one of twelve nurses from around the country chosen to participate in the first cohort of Living Beyond Breast Cancer’s Survivorship Series training in 2018, presented my work on a peer support program for breast cancer patients at the Oncology Nursing Society (ONS) Congress in 2017 for and am currently president for the local ONS chapter. I love nature photography, reading, traveling, playing board games and spending time with my daughter, husband and sweet 12-year-old tabby cat."

Before attending PA school at Bethel University in Tennessee, I earned my bachelor’s degree in biology from Georgia College and State University. Last year, I had the opportunity to return to Georgia to complete my clinical rotations in the Atlanta area, where I discovered my passion for oncology and the meaningful connections that come with caring for these patients and their families. I’m incredibly excited to join Emory as a Hematology/Oncology APP Fellow and to learn from such a dedicated and experienced team. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, trying new restaurants, and going for walks around the city, especially along the Beltline. 

I earned both my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), a place that has been instrumental in shaping both my clinical knowledge and my professional identity. I began my nursing career in oncology, which has always held a special place in my heart. I pursued certification as an Oncology Certified Nurse (OCN) to deepen my clinical expertise within the field. Outside of my career, I believe strongly in maintaining a healthy and balanced lifestyle. I’m passionate about fitness, and you’ll often find me in a HIIT class, on a Lagree reformer, or strength training at the gym. I share my life with my beloved Yorkie Poo, Bankroll. He’s my constant companion and brings so much joy and calm to my daily routine. His sweet personality is a reminder to slow down and appreciate the little things in life. As I look forward to the future, I remain committed to advancing my oncology nursing career and I am excited to be joining the Winship team.
