I obtained my undergraduate degree from Howard University where I graduated Magna Cum Laude, and my doctorate from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. I completed my final graduate internship at Sheppard Pratt’s Crisis Walk-In Clinic and Crisis Admission Unit where I gained experience in treating children, adolescents, and adults in psychiatric crisis.
I have a wide variety of professional experience including medical-psychiatry, inpatient psychiatry, outpatient psychiatry, and substance use detox and rehabilitation. I have worked as a psychiatric nurse in Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, and am skilled in treating diverse patient populations and diagnoses.
