Care Coordinator

I graduated from North Carolina Central University, obtaining a Bachelor’s degree in Family and Consumer Sciences with a concentration in Child Development and Family Relations. I’m currently obtaining my Master’s degree in Family and Consumer Sciences with a concentration in Child Development and Family Studies. Working with the family and the community is a key component of both of my degrees. I've always desired a position working with kids and the ability to help families.

I’m a graduate of North Carolina Central University. I have many years of experience in the health care field. I have a passion for helping others. I enjoy spending time with family, traveling, and watching movies.

I started my career at Duke in December 2017 as a patient service associate at the Duke Eye Center. Then in 2020, I became a financial care counselor, where I assisted patients with their financial benefits. I worked closely with insurance companies and our providers. I enjoy helping people in anything I do. I look forward to assisting our patients here at PHMO.

I started with Duke in March of 2019 as a Financial Care Counselor at Duke Eye Center. During that time, it was my responsibility to work with patients to resolve any financial barriers related to their healthcare. I am excited to be a part of the DukeWELL team as a Senior Care Coordinator. I have always had a passion to help people and my community. It’s exciting to be a part of a team that shares that same passion. In 2024, I earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from the Bryan School of Business and Economics at UNC Greensboro.

I have a management background in health insurance and as a government contractor. I received a degree in Health Science in 2014. I am currently studying for Healthcare Administration. I owned and managed a group home for Intellectual Disabled adults with critical needs for over 10 years. I have always had a strong desire to assist people with their needs in everyday life. Working as an associate in PHMO allows me to continue bridging the gap for patients by providing the resources necessary to fulfill their healthcare needs and essentials.

I have been employed by Duke for over 20 years. I began my career in the Undergraduate Financial Aid Office in August 2000. I transitioned to the Duke Talent Identification Program in October, 2013. In January 2021, I started a new career in Population Health as a Care Coordinator. I look forward to making a difference in the overall health of the patients and communities Duke serves.

I was born and raised in Durham, NC. I started working at Duke as a COVID Screener in 2020 and soon worked my way to being on the great PHMO staff. I am very excited to be in my roll as a DukeWELL Care Coordinator and to work with different patients and help them get the proper care they deserve.

My Background: I used to be a fireman before I came to work at Duke.

I was born and raised in Durham, NC. I have been a part of Duke as a certified medical assistant for twelve years. My work at Duke has allowed me to gain valuable knowledge regarding patient care and access to health care. I am excited to be a part of DukeWELL. 

I have worked in the customer service field since I was in the ninth grade, and I have developed a passion for helping customers resolve issues while creating a positive image of the company and myself. I’ve proven my ability to listen attentively, solve problems quickly and efficiently, and create good professional relationships with patients. I love providing a safe place for people to receive the help that they need.
