About Me

I am an experienced EMS provider and RN. My professional work included Medication Safety, Emergency Preparedness, Exceptional Care, and System Development.  I have been a Clinical Nurse Specialist, a Nurse Manager for Critical Care Transport Teams/Systems. Striving for excellent care, caring for staff and patients, and the education and development of staff as strong clinicians and leaders has always been a passion of mine.
