Hi everyone! Thank you for such a warm welcome into your team. I am absolutely THRILLED to be here! I have a beloved history and deep admiration for UW Health. As a highschooler, I started out volunteering at both UW Hospital and AFCH. In college, I worked as a nursing assistant on D6/4 (adult neurosciences unit). After college, I worked at AFCH as a pediatric registered nurse on P5 (general medical surgical unit). I am so happy I get to combine my interests and continue my career with UW Health, this time as a nurse practitioner! I look forward to getting to know all of you!

I enjoy watching movies, playing games and going out to eat with my family.
I decided to become a nurse after working as a CNA. I enjoyed helping people but did not see myself working as a CNA for very long as it was extremely difficult physically. I learned that I loved the science and critical thinking of nursing.
My husband and I enjoy going to new and interesting music venues. We recently went to Codfish Hollow in Iowa.
A goofy fact about me is that I grew up living in an old church that my grandmother turned into a Norman Rockwell art gallery.
