Biography

After I graduated with my BS in Nursing from Purdue University in 1994, I spent approximately 2o years providing bedside nursing, along with later developing the educator role in staff development on a busy medical surgical unit. After obtaining my MSN in Nurse Education in 2018, I began my formal teaching position within the School of Nursing. Currently, I co-coordinate NUR 314, Health Alterations in Adult Patients I, and I am part of the dedicated simulation faculty that provides dedicated simulation to those taking NUR 314 /NUR 317.  I am beyond thrilled to be teaching at my alma mater!
