I am originally from Senegal, West Africa, but I grew up in the US. I am a nationally certified Physician Assistant and I completed my education at D'Youville College in Buffalo, NY.

I am originally from a tiny mountain town in Northern California but have been all over the place in the last decade- was stationed in Georgia while in the Army, lived among the redwoods and coast even further up in California (Humboldt), went to PA school in Seattle (UW) and have finally have put my roots down here in Vancouver, WA. I live with my husband, our silly toddler and our even sillier set of animals- Chocolate lab, dachshund and a cat named Bruno- (but we don't talk about him!). I love spending time outdoors (rain or shine!), but am also a sucker for curling up with a good book or getting lost in a puzzle or some arts and crafts!
