I am a Physician Assistant whose primary focus has been the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders. From sleep apnea, insomnia, narcolepsy, and restless leg syndrome I love improving patients’ lives through better sleep. I am excited to be a part of the Ognomy team and bring better sleep to you in the comfort of your own home.

I am a family nurse practitioner at the Sleep Centers of WNY. I work closely with the founder Dr. Rifkin as well as all of the other providers to treat and coordinate care for all patients. I completed my Bachelor of Nursing at Duquesne University of Pittsburgh, PA and went on to work at Women and Children’s Hospital, now John R. Oishei hospital in Buffalo for over 4 years. Recently I completed my Family Nurse Practitioner degree at D’Youville College in December of 2019. I am board certified through ANCC. I look forward to helping patients better understand and treat their sleep disorders.

I am a board certified Physician Assistant working in collaboration with Dr. Rifkin since 2004. As a Physician Assistant in Sleep Medicine, my primary focus includes the diagnosis and treatment of both adult and pediatric sleep disorders including sleep apnea, insomnia, narcolepsy, restless legs syndrome (Willis-Ekbom disease) and others. Currently, I am a provider in New York State, practice administrator at the Sleep Medicine Centers of Western New York, as well as a guest lecturer at Daemen College. These roles have provided me with a unique opportunity to work with students, colleagues, and patients regarding a variety of not only sleep disorders but often in the setting of challenging comorbid medical issues in a team based approach. I look forward to bringing this same standard of care from years of experience into telemedicine.

I am a bio-experienced nurse practitioner with a demonstrated history of working in the medical practice industry. Skilled in sleep medicine, critical care medicine, psychiatry, healthcare, and medicine. Strong healthcare services professional with a Masters of Science in Adult Health Nurse Practitioner from Daemen College.
