About Our Practice

SR.jpg

I am a Doctorally prepared Certified Family Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience in healthcare.  I received my BSN from North Carolina A&T State University and my DNP, FNP from Gardner- Webb University.  I have extensive training and experience in primary and urgent care settings. I began STAT Care and Wellness as I saw a need for convenient, affordable, and stress-free medical care. Service to others has been my drive to improve the health of my community.  When I’m not seeing Patients. I enjoy spending time with my 15- and 3-year-old sons, I love trying new recipes; and traveling as much as I can!  I cannot wait to meet you!
