Certified Nurse Midwives (CNM) support women as partners in healthcare choices, thus we empower women to be responsible for their own health. I have been a CNM since April of 1988. In the 25 years of practice I have delivered over 4000 babies, in hospital only , seen thousands of pregnant women as well as cared for thousands of gynecological patient's to include first exams for teenagers, STD counseling birth control counseling, abnormal Pap smears, menopausal signs and symptoms and many other health issues.

I was born and raised in New Hampshire, went to Nursing school there, then Nurse Midwifery School at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.I am devoted to my patients and their families and most of all, love what I do. I am married to husband, LaVelle who is an officer in the United States Public Health Service, and has a Doctorate in Nursing Practice, we live in Denton. I have two sons, James, 26 who is studying Opera at Texas A&M University, Corpus Christi and son, Trevor, 23, who graduated in May 2012 from The University of Texas with a degree in Government. He lives in Washington, DC while trying to find a job. I enjoy spending time with family, gardening, and photography.
