Our Team

I am a native of Whitney, Texas and a Whitney High School graduate. From there I attended Texas A&M University where I graduated in 1991 with a BS degree in Biomedical Science. I had known since early childhood that I wanted to be an optometrist after getting my first pair of glasses and so I then attended University of Houston College of Optometry where I graduated Magna Cum Laude and obtained licensure in 1995. I immediately opened my practice, Whitney Family Eyecare, in 1995 where I continue to practice today. I love serving the community in which I grew up and where my family has such strong ties. My hope is to give back to those who have given so much to me.

When away from the office I spend a lot of time on Lake Whitney bass fishing or just enjoying the lake with family. I also enjoy deer hunting and mix in an occasional round of golf at White Bluff Resort.
