About

I am currently in the Doctorate Nurse Practitioner Program at UW-Milwaukee. Anticipated graduation date is May of 2019 (so I have a ways to go). I am going to school full time and working the weekend program at Froedtert Hospital where I am the Charge Nurse on the Neuroscience unit.
I graduated with my BSN from UW-Oshkosh in December 2014. I love spending time with my family and my miniature dachshund (Mina). I am excited to be a first time aunt this May as my older sister and brother-in-law are expecting.
I am passionate about nursing and caring for others.
