From NFL Cheerleader to Emergency Medicine P.A. to Healthcare Leader

The Journey That Shaped Me

From Barely Graduating High School To Healthcare Professional

I grew up with extremely limited means in rural Louisiana. Despite seeing where I am now as a medical professional with degrees and recognition, I barely graduated from high school.

I was married at 17, became a mother at 19, and was already overweight with prediabetes in my 20s.

After finding out about my prediabetes diagnosis, my physician made it feel like a lifetime of prison. So when I auditioned to be an NFL Cheerleader, it’s of no surprise to me now that my health contributed to being rejected by 3 different teams that first year.

I committed to doing whatever it took to get healthy and succeed. My desire to do something BIG motivated me as a young adult to wake up before 5 am every day to sweat and plan my meals before my toddler woke up and I headed to class and work.

That year, I lost 25 lbs AND my prediabetes diagnosis through my own blood, sweat, and tears.

As a result, I learned first-hand the power individuals hold over their own health and became a professional athlete joining my first NFL team as a cheerleader. The grit, hard work, and perseverance showed me that I could do whatever I wanted.

From NFL Cheerleader to PA: The Unexpected Path

Empowered by my own discovery of personal health empowerment, I transitioned from NFL cheerleading to pursue a career as a Physician Associate (PA). I wanted to become a clinician to teach others how to take control of their own health.

Becoming a PA opened new doors for me to make a meaningful impact in the lives of individuals, families, and communities. It was through this role that I witnessed the broken system that so many think is the answer to all their health problems.

Challenging the System & Empowering Workplaces

Having recognized the need for change within the healthcare industry, I have made it my personal mission to provide solutions and answers to individuals and organizations.

Fearlessly confronting traditional norms and power dynamics, I am driven by a deep passion for fairness and transparency. Through my expertise, innovative thinking, and strategic approach, I aim to reshape the conversation and inspire others to join me in transforming the healthcare landscape.

Together, we can create a future where everyone has equal access to quality care and thrive in a more empowering healthcare system.

My Core Values

EMPOWERMENT

I believe in empowering individuals and employees to make informed decisions and take control of their health. By providing education and solutions that are readily available and affordable, I empower others to take part in their own well-being and access care when they need it.

TRANSPARENCY

Transparency is the only way to eliminate dysfunction and corruption in the healthcare system and crucial to building trust and breaking down barriers to quality healthcare. I am committed to promoting transparency in the practice and the business of healthcare by advocating for true informed consent, clear communication, fair practices, financial transparency, and open dialogues.

INNOVATION

I embrace innovation as a catalyst for transformative change in healthcare. By staying at the forefront of emerging trends, technologies, and best practices, I seek to align myself with organizations that can enhance the delivery and accessibility of healthcare services.

ADVOCACY

 As a passionate advocate for individuals and organizations, I am committed to speaking up for their needs and rights. I actively work to address healthcare disparities, promote health equity, improve health literacy, and ensure that everyone has a voice in the healthcare system.

COLLABORATION

I believe in the power of collaboration and partnerships. By fostering strong collaborations with industry thought leaders, activists, innovators, and organizations, I aim to drive collective efforts toward a more transparent, empowering, and inclusive healthcare system.
