A little about me...

 I was raised in a Navy family along with three sisters.  I was born in Key West and our family lived in Africa, Georgia, Alabama, Rhode Island and California before settling in Pensacola.

 I attended Newcomb College and was married just prior to starting Tulane Medical School.  Recently, my husband (Parker) and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary.  Following my graduation from medical school, we made a decision to stay in the New Orleans area and I began my four years of residency training in Obstetrics & Gynecology at Ochsner.



 Immediately after the completion of my residency, our first daughter (Lauren) was born and I began private practice at Baptist Hospital.  Later, we were blessed with another daughter and a son (Ashleigh & Jonathan).

 Following Hurricane Katrina, I relocated my practice from Memorial Medical to Ochsner Medical Center.  Although I was working at  Memorial, I had been an Ochsner physician for almost four years, and  was very familiar with the staff. In early 2007, I made a decision to relocate my practice back Uptown at Touro Infirmary.

 Mid-September, 2005, back in New Orleans and back at Ochsner, my first delivery post-Katrina.  It was great to be back.
