As the Owner/Administrator of Cornerstone Court, I have been dedicated to the healthcare industry since 2016. My career began as a caregiver, and over the years, I have progressed through various supervisory roles. In January 2023, by God’s grace, I seized the opportunity to purchase Cornerstone Court and have since been leading with a hands-on approach, having worked in every department from washing dishes to providing care and cleaning rooms.

I hold a high school diploma (2011) and qualifications in NAC, nurse delegation, and a special focus on diabetes. Known for my reliability and keen observation skills, I believe in serving first and leading second. I would never ask anyone to do something I wouldn't do myself, and this approach ensures a cohesive and motivated team, committed to providing the best care possible.

Born and raised in Spokane, I have a deep connection to the community. Outside of work, I love getting outdoors—whether it's hiking, biking, fishing, or swimming, I find great joy and relaxation in nature.

As the Human Resources Manager at Cornerstone Court, I’ve been fortunate to accumulate over 20 years of experience in various facets of medical administration. My career has included roles in chiropractic office management, physical therapy, massage therapy, orthopedics, and patient access supervision at a level two trauma center.

I hold a high school diploma (2003) and a Massage Therapy Certification (2004), and have recently obtained my HRCI-Human Resources Associate Professional Certificate. My strengths lie in building strong relationships and managing conflicts effectively. I aim to balance the organization’s needs with those of our staff, advocating fairly for employees while meeting business objectives. I believe it’s crucial to understand employees' lives beyond the workplace.

On a personal note, I love traveling, learning new things, and cheering on the Green Bay Packers during football season.
