In the 26 years since graduation from Baylor College of Medicine, one of the first masters-level Physician Assistant programs in the country, my practice settings have evolved from inpatient care at an academic institution, with oncology, nephrology and infectious disease, to outpatient internal medicine in a suburban health system, to rural family practice in a healthcare provider shortage area, and then most recently to the patient-centered medical home model of a community health center. The experiences have been broad, valuable, and personally and professionally rewarding.

I am now working to bring these varied clinical experiences to bear in social and behavioral clinical research with Baylor Scott & White Health, working within the Geriatrics department in conjunction with Center for Applied Health Research. D-CARE is a large, multi-site study comparing interventions with dyads of persons living with dementia and their (unpaid) caregivers.
