After graduating from Auburn University, she completed her pharmacy practice residency at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta and then a clinical position with Children’s working with the cardiac intensive care and cardiopulmonary transplant units. In 2000, she accepted an appointment with Auburn University with a practice affiliated with the University of South Alabama Medical School, Department of Internal Medicine. She provided care for inpatient internal medicine patients, but maintained a consult service and patient advocacy program for patients with chronic pain or terminal illness. Her research interests revolve around the attitudes/perceptions of practitioners regarding chronic pain patients and how that impacts the care they receive.  For the last eleven years, I have served as the Assistant Dean of the Mobile Satellite Campus for the Harrison School of Pharmacy.  She is also serving on a state task force looking at the quality of hospice/palliative care in Alabama.
