Education & Training
I received my Masters Degree in PA studies in 2004 from Wayne State University after undergraduate work at Grand Valley State. I started the early part of my career in Madison Heights, MI where I worked for four years until returning home to work with the Dermatology Center of Grands Rapids. I am actively involved in the dermatology community and through various medical associations. I love helping people and the relationships with my patients make for a truly fulfilling career.
