As a bright-eyed and eager learner, Dallas always had her sights set on becoming a healthcare professional. She committed to the cause by entering an accelerated nursing program through Delaware Technical Community College and graduating with her Associates Degree of Nursing at the ripe age of 20. She began her career as a Registered Nurse (RN) on a General Surgery Unit in Newport News, VA while simultaneously earning her Bachelor’s Degree of Nursing through Wilmington University.
The world of medicine was quickly turned upside down by the COVID-19 pandemic causing supply shortages, staffing deficits, and ever-changing medical guidelines that forever shaped Dallas’s ability to adapt and overcome the trials of healthcare. Dallas devoted her time as Charge Nurse to both the General Surgery Unit and COVID-19 Unit, before relocating to the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex where she ultimately returned to graduate school in January 2022. While in graduate school, Dallas worked full-time as a pediatric home health care RN, taking care of medically complex children in the comfort of their own homes. She graduated from The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, earning her Master’s Degree of Nursing in August 2023. Dallas is board-certified by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners as a Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP).
She is a life-long learner and avid enthusiast for holistic care and shared decision making. Dallas has put her passion for preventative medicine into action by practicing as a Primary Care Provider for 12 months before relocating back to her Delaware roots, where she has joined the Atracare team.
When not serving the needs of others, Dallas can be found with her husband, Nick, and daughter, Maren, at your local farmer’s market, beaches, or out and about with her two pups, Boots and Bandit. Dallas keeps family values at her core, and carries that passion into the care she provides as an FNP.
Dallas can be seen in the Atracare Walk-In Clinic for your acute needs and will soon be accepting patients at Atracare Primary Care where she will walk alongside you in your healthcare journey!
