My name is Stephanie, and I was born and raised right in the heart of Arlington, Texas. I completed my Bachelor of Science in Public Health with a concentration in Nutrition at the University of Texas at Austin. After working for a few years, I pursued my Master’s in Physician Assistant Studies at UTMB in Galveston in 2021. I have previous work experience as a Physician Associate (PA) in family medicine, general pediatrics, and allergy and asthma.
My passion for pediatric care has stuck with me since before my acceptance to PA school, and it has only increased from there. During my training, I gained experience working with children in different specialties, including Genetics, ER, and Plastic Surgery at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston. My heart lies with caring for kids and their families at every stage of growth and development, and for any acute or chronic illnesses.
Outside of medicine, I like to eat, hike, play sports, read books, and paint!
