Areas of Expertise

Family Nurse Practitioner, specializing in Internal Medicine and Urgent Care

Background

I have been in nursing for over 20 years, working in geriatrics, pediatrics, NICU, and the Emergency Department. My love for teaching began when I was recruited to help teach and orientate new RNs in the Emergency Department. I originally was going to get my Education degree, however, I still wanted to care for patients so I took the Family Nurse Practitioner track. During my time as a graduate student, I began working as adjunct faculty and have stayed on ever since.

Education

BSN, IUPUI School of Nursing

MSN-FNP, University of Indianapolis

Fun Facts

I am married and a mother of three children, three dogs, and two cats. I love to travel and explore. One of my favorite activities is to go skiing in Colorado.

Favorite Thing About UIndy

I love the UIndy culture—everyone is invested in their job and truly wants to see the students progress and be successful. Faculty also invest in each other to make sure the staff is mentored and supported.
