She earned her Bachelor of Science in Biology from Campbell University in North Carolina and went on to complete her Master of Medical Science degree at the Anne Arundel Community College Physician Assistant Program in 2011.

Kristen has a special interest in preventive medicine and oncology care. She is passionate about partnering with patients to support their long-term health and values the meaningful connections she builds through compassionate, patient-centered care.

Outside of work, she enjoys traveling to the beach, and spending meaningful time with her family and friends—especially her 7 nephews and 3 nieces!
