About Emily

My name is Emily! I started my career as a nursing assistant, providing essential basic care with compassion at the forefront. From there, I became a nurse and quickly found my passion in pediatrics. I loved caring for children and their families at their most vulnerable times. I was inspired to go back to NP school because I wanted to see patients more consistently in order to grow trusting relationships with them and their families. This was unfortunately lacking in inpatient care as we would care for and treat patients for a few days and then discharge them, possibly to never see them again. I LOVE what I do now - working as a nurse practitioner in a primary care office. I see kids for their well visits and sick visits. In my free-time I love to run and hike, play with my nephews and nieces, and explore anywhere with yummy food!
