Care Coordinator

I’m from Durham, and I attended college at North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University (NC A&T State University) and obtained my bachelor’s degree in social work. What I love most about the work that I do is serving populations in the community in ways that promote healthy development that enhances one’s quality of life.

I’ve been working in the mental health field for more than twenty years. I’ve had the opportunity to be able to work with this population at different stages and ages. I feel privileged to be able to help our patients meet their goals and milestones.

I was born and raised in Durham, NC. I have been a part of Duke as a certified medical assistant for twelve years. My work at Duke has allowed me to gain valuable knowledge regarding patient care and access to health care. I am excited to be a part of DukeWELL. 

I am a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Pembroke, holding a bachelor’s in psychology with a minor in sociology. I have over eight years experience as a patient services associate. I am a proud Durhamite! I am excited to connect patients with valuable community resources that foster positive health outcomes and enhance their quality of life. 

I have joined the DukeWELL team because I have always wanted to be a part of the bigger picture when it comes to helping my patients. A lot of patients have left appointments not receiving all of the help that they may have needed. This has always made me realize that we are missing a step in caring for patients. If I can lend a hand or ease my patients into the best care, then I'll do whatever it takes.

I am originally from Arkansas but have lived in North Carolina for over 16 years now. I have many years of experience working as a medical coordinator for geriatrics with ID. I have a passion for taking care of others and enjoy helping people connect with resources they need. I am excited to start my career here at PHMO.

I have worked in the customer service field since I was in the ninth grade, and I have developed a passion for helping customers resolve issues while creating a positive image of the company and myself. I’ve proven my ability to listen attentively, solve problems quickly and efficiently, and create good professional relationships with patients. I love providing a safe place for people to receive the help that they need.

I have always thrived on helping others, and with a complicated medical history myself, I know what it is like to receive extraordinary care, and I strive to provide that to others! I love interacting with patients and hopefully making their health journey a little easier and simpler. I have been with Duke for three years and have loved every minute of what I am able to directly provide to my patients. I look forward to assisting with your care.

I am a mom and a G'ma. I have a wonderful family. I worked for Regional Pediatrics for nine years. I am a Peer Support Specialist and a Certified Nursing Assistant. I love helping people. Now, I'm working as a Resource Center Care Coodinator; I am working my dream job!
