Nurse Practitioner, Listener, Science Nerd, Nature Lover and your Partner in Health

 I created Vivacity.Health to help middle aged women and men live thrive! With midlife comes menopause and andropause which can bring on unexpected health changes. I am here to say that we can improve those changes so that you can get living a life that is filled with VIVE!

With over 28 years of total nursing experience and 13 years as a Nurse Practitioner, I have seen the healthcare system from every angle. While my foundation is in Family Medicine, my passion lies in the personalized science of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) and Functional Medicine.

I don’t believe in "masking" symptoms. I believe in finding their root cause.

My approach to hormone health is rigorous and evidence-based. I am a graduate of the University of San Diego with honors and an inducted member of Sigma Theta Tau. Crucially, I have honed my specialty in BHRT by studying directly under Dr. Daved Rosensweet, a true pioneer in bioidentical medicine and hormone replenishment. Today, I am proud to sit on the board of the International Board of Bioidentical Medicine (IOBM), helping to shape the standards of care for women everywhere.

But credentials only tell half the story. I believe that true VIVACITY is built on a foundation of lifestyle—how we eat, how we move, and how we manage stress. I am here to be your partner, combining advanced medical protocols with the empathy of a good listener.

I invite you to not 'pause but to VIVE!

When I’m not in the clinic: I am a mother of college age twins (so I understand the need for energy!), a nature lover, a hiker, and a swimmer. I believe life is meant to be enjoyed—preferably with a hot cup of coffee every morning and a glass of good wine (some) evenings.
