My practice is dedicated to the treatment of headaches and concussions. I personally have suffered with migraines since my teenage years. I understand the necessity of both preventative care as well as management of the acute headache. With my own life, I know completely how truly devastating headaches can be in terms of lifestyle, family and career implications. Each patients’ plan is individualized after making the initial assessments of what has been trialed in the past and what new options are available. Thankfully, the world of headache medicine has come a long way since my teenage years and we now have both new preventative and rescue medications specifically designed for the management of headaches.
I am a board-certified physician assistant at St Luke's University Health Network’s Center for Neuroscience since 2017. I graduated from the University of Florida physician assistant program in 2004 and moved to the Lehigh Valley in 2011. My training has been extensive in both of these specialties from fellowship-trained headache and concussion physicians.
I live in the Lehigh Valley with my husband, two boys and our Italian greyhounds. Outside of work, my husband and I are active within the community through our children’s school activities and sports. We all love to hike, swim, golf and ride bicycles. In the winter, we are avid skiers. Most of the time outside of work is dedicated to family and sports.
