“I began working as a nurse in the pediatric transplant program at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta in 2002. In that role, I noticed that a lot of the problems affecting the patients’ parents were mental health-related. This inspired me to go back to school to become a Nurse Practitioner, and eventually a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. Through my work in mental health, I ended up with a special interest in the addiction treatment field. I love working with the clients at MARR, alongside the rest of our medical team and clinical teams, to achieve their goals in sobriety.”
