I am a Certified Phlebotomist and Certified IV Specialist with 12 years of experience in blood draws. I also serve as a trainer, teaching various techniques including how to locate appropriate veins for blood draws and IV catheter placements, as well as the mechanics of these procedures.
In my time working in the IV Room at THS for over four years, I’ve come to believe that Integrative Medicine is key to healing. I see the value in combining traditional Western medicine with holistic approaches, not as replacements for one another but as complementary methods that, when integrated, can address both immediate symptoms and the underlying causes, while promoting patient education and lifestyle changes.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family, baking, reading, gardening, kayaking, and traveling. I’m also an avid outdoors enthusiast.
