About me:

I am an El Paso native and graduated with a degree in Microbiology from the University of Texas at El Paso.  During my time there, I had the opportunity to participate in research in Maidugari, Nigeria; studying the effects of HIV in pregnancy.  This was my first exposure to obstetrics and it inspired me to pursue a career as an advocate for women’s health.  I am blessed to have a career that brings such joy to my life, and I treasure the long term relationships I am able to build with my patients and their families.  I look forward to treating my patients at the different stages throughout their lives, from adolescence through the post menopausal years.
