I am born and raised in Jacksonville (DUUUUVAL!!!). I am excited to return and serve the community I grew up in. I developed an interest in psychiatry after medical school during my intern year and switched specialties. My interests include first episode psychosis, C&L, and interventional psychiatry.

I grew up in Ormond Beach, Florida and went to the University of Florida for undergrad before attending Florida State University for medical school (but really Go Gators!). I matched into the child & adolescent track and am looking forward to making Jacksonville my new home.

I was born in Hampton, Virginia and spent five years enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Infantry after high school. Shortly after returning from a deployment to Afghanistan, I was honorably discharged and began my undergraduate studies at Mars Hill University. During medical school, I found that my most rewarding experiences were those spent in psychiatry. I am most interested in Child and Adolescent psychiatry. When I am not at the hospital, you can be sure to find me and my family at the beach! My wife and I have two beautiful daughters who love playing in the sand and splashing in the waves. We also love live music, ice hockey, NASCAR and our Jaguars!

I have aspired to serve as a psychiatrist since my introduction to the field as a high school student. My goal is to provide personalized, compassionate and thoughtful care in the context of community psychiatry. I intend to also provide services for those experiencing homelessness, those with addictions and adolescents who are transitioning into adulthood. I am also interested in working to bridge the mental health and spiritual frameworks in efforts to further destigmatize seeking psychiatric care. I was born and raised in Memphis, TN and received an honors Psychology degree with a music minor from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, TN. Moving further east across the state, I attended Quillen College of Medicine in Johnson City, TN. In my free time, I enjoy singing opera, writing songs and poetry, traveling to visit my family and watching Marvel movies/TV shows with my husband, who is stationed at Naval Station Mayport as a Surface Warfare Officer. I am so blessed to be a part of this amazing program!

I am a Jacksonville native and am ecstatic to return home and serve the community through my psychiatric training. I first developed an interest in psychiatry as an undergraduate student at Vanderbilt University, where I majored in neuroscience, and then saw that interest grow into a passion while in medical school at the Alabama College of Osteopathic Medicine. As a medical student, I was inducted into the Sigma Sigma Phi Osteopathic Honors Fraternity and was awarded my College's 2022 Behavioral Medicine Award. I look forward to carrying my passion for general psychiatry throughout residency as I explore the many facets of this wonderful field. Outside of work, I enjoy collecting records, going to concerts, relaxing at home with my partner and our fat cat Julius, and crossing my fingers that the Jaguars will one day stop losing so much.

I grew up in Bonifay, Florida before heading over to Florida State University for undergraduate, graduate, and medical school. Areas of interest include child and adolescent psychiatry, community psychiatry, collaborative care and psychotherapy. In my free time, I like to play disc golf and cornhole, cook, and make music.

I was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona. I loved growing up running in the desert and all things sun. I spent my first year of medical school in Arizona and then my next three in Portland, Oregon, which quickly introduced me to the concept of rain. Despite the weather, I loved my time there and it’s where I discovered my fascination of psychiatry. I was drawn to psychiatry because it allows me to merge my appreciation of medicine with my foundation in public health as an undergraduate. UF Jacksonville gave me the opportunity to continue investing in others with a diverse program that includes community psychiatry and a child fellowship, which I am on track for. I couldn’t be happier to be back in the sun and training with such kind and genuine people!

I grew up in Orlando, Florida but had wonderful opportunities to move around throughout my studies. For undergrad I went to Brown University where I majored in community health and then pursued a Master’s in Public Health at Columbia University in New York City. While passionate about public health, my desire to study medicine remained and I then pursued a Master’s in Medical Sciences at the University of South Florida to better prepare for the rigors of medical school. Later, the University of Florida College of Medicine welcomed me into their training program. During my clinical rotations, I discovered I greatly enjoyed psychiatry and all the nuances that accompany what appears to be the last frontier of medicine. I am fascinated by the roles of psychopharmacology and psychotherapy in helping patients achieve stability in their lives. I have interests in community psychiatry, child and adolescent psychiatry, and forensic psychiatry. In my free time, you can find me traveling and exploring Jacksonville with my husband and baby boy.

I completed my undergraduate and medical school education at the University of Central Florida in Orlando. As a medical student, I was drawn to psychiatry during my psychiatry clerkship when I realized how much I valued interpersonal aspects of patient care and clinical medicine. During my time in medical school, I received Academic Excellence Award and the Outstanding Senior in Psychiatry Award for demonstrating academic, patient care and professional achievements. My current interests in psychiatry are broad and include addiction and neuromodulation. I am hoping to work on an inpatient psychiatry unit as well as community, and private practice. In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors, exploring new places, and spending time at the beach with family and friends.

I’m originally from Atlanta and went to Emory University for undergrad before attending Tulane School of Medicine. I'm interested in several areas of psychiatry including forensics, addiction, and psychotherapy. In my free time, I like to spend time outdoors, especially playing tennis and pickleball. I love Jacksonville and I’m glad to be doing my training in this city!

Having grown up in Northern California, I'm excited to call Florida my home for residency. I completed my undergraduate education at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a major in Economics before returning to Northern California for medical school. 10 years ago I was working in Sales at a tech start-up in Silicon Valley and would never have guessed I'd be pursuing a career in Psychiatry. I came to find a passion for Psychiatry in medical school due to it's patient-centered dynamic and emphasis on human connection. Throughout residency, I hope to narrow down my interests in Psychiatry, though I am currently drawn to community psychiatry and psychotherapy. Outside the hospital, you'll find me on a long walk looking at plants, birds or water.

I am a Florida native, born and raised on the Space Coast. I attended Florida State University for my undergraduate years and majored in Exercise Physiology, prior to returning to FSU for my medical degree. I am interested in psychiatric care for all ages. Outside of work, I enjoy singing, gardening, working out, and exploring new places.

I was born and raised in Nigeria before moving to Nashville, TN. I went to medical school at Quillen COM, where I also received a master's in public health with a concentration in health administration and health policy. I was introduced to psychiatry during my AP psychology class in high school and since then, I have developed a strong interest in global and interventional psychiatry. My goal is to help eliminate health disparities and treat medically underserved populations. In my free time, I enjoy brunch, working out, and traveling. I'm looking forward to creating a home in Jacksonville!

I was born and raised in Lagos, Nigeria before moving to Florida in 2013. I am in the child & adolescent psychiatry track and excited to be a quadruple gator since I completed my undergraduate and medical school education at the University of Florida. I am interested in community psychiatry especially in individuals who are living with homelessness, in-patient psychiatry, psychotherapy and child & adolescent psychiatry. My hobbies are baking, cooking and enjoying a sunny day on the beach with family and friends.
