Why did you become a optometrist?
I became an optometrist because I've always had an interest in helping others. I also did not have any form of eye care as a child. My first eye exam was at the age of 14, thinking that blurry distance vision was normal for a teenager. I then understood what a difference an eye doctor can make in one's life. My vision became worse every year and I needed access to eye care, glasses, and contact lenses. There were not many answers for a struggling teen and college kid who could not afford the care I needed. I was driven to finish school and become an eye doctor so I can help those in need, like myself.

I've been married for 25 years to Roxann, we have 4 children, 3 boys, one girl. We own a dog, Winston. I was born in Southern California and I have two younger sisters. We all live in Colorado Springs, along with my mom. I enjoy all things music and all sports. Tennis & Guitar are my favorite.

Why did you become a optometrist?
In college, I was undecided on a major and was exploring possible career paths when I had the opportunity to attend an open-house at an optometry school with a friend who was going to attend that school. After seeing the school and speaking with students there, I decided to schedule time with a local optometrist to shadow her in the office and see what day-to-day life was like as an optometrist. I found the career appealing because of the work-life balance and the reward of helping people to see better. I was so anxious to start that within just a few weeks I had enrolled in the required prerequisite classes, signed up to take the admission test, and applied for optometry school. I began the program the following year.
Interesting Facts

I grew up in Pueblo, Colorado and am excited to be able to provide eye care to children in my home town. In my spare time, I love to read and write. I also play the piano and the violin and enjoy running and gardening.

Why did you become a optometrist?
I had worn glasses since the 4th grade, but it never occurred to me that "I" would be an optometrist. After my 3 children were all in school I was looking for something to fill my time and considered becoming an optometry technician for the Air Force Reserve. My husband mentioned optometry school and the rest is history. I fell in love with eyes and couldn't be happier with the path I chose.
Interesting Facts

I grew up in OK and married my husband of 25 years shortly after graduating high school. My husband served 23 years in the Air Force which took us all over the US before settling in Colorado. I have two sons and one daughter and enjoy spending time with family and friends cooking and watching movies.

Staff are amazing, helpful and respectful. Amazing service and great with my son. Clean and warm welcoming surroundings as well. Recommend to all.
