Practice Experience:
I started my 1st pediatric practice in Meridian, MS with Rush Foundation Hospital in November 2017, before transitioning to Ochsner Rush Hospital in 2022. I established my practice for over 8 years before moving closer to home and joining Desoto Children’s clinic in March 2026. Building relationships with families and establishing trust in the medical realm are experiences that I always cherish and do not take for granted.

Nurturing the developments of life, from the time a baby is born until a young adult, is truly amazing and such a joy to be a part of the whole process year after year. I am a servant of Jesus Christ who deeply cares for his children through medicine and extends hope to families in their time of need. I am enjoying this new chapter of service providing exceptional care to the children of this community and surrounding areas.
