“It is a mission of mine to provide the highest level of quality patient care by offering the very best in medical, surgical, and cosmetic dermatologic care.”
Jessica joined the Contour Dermatology team in January 2018 as a Nurse Practitioner. She knew she wanted to be a nurse, but didn’t realize her love for dermatology until she interned with a Dermatology Nurse Practitioner during her graduate training. After graduating, she relocated to California from the east coast to pursue her passion for dermatology, and hasn’t looked back.
Her background consists of 10 years of nursing experience before she started as a nurse practitioner in 2016.
Jessica says she can relate to the intense social and emotional effects that accompany various types of skin diseases. That’s because she knows first-hand what a skin cancer diagnosis can do to an individual and their family. This has made her very passionate about helping people to look and feel their absolute best.
Jessica lives in Redlands with her husband and adorable 2 year old chihuahua rescue.
A former college athlete, she enjoys staying very active. She is particularly interested in yoga, running and hiking. She also enjoys arts and crafts from time to time.
