About

I have been a dedicated nurse for the past 18 years, with a career deeply rooted in both critical care and healthcare administration. In 2015, I earned my Master’s degree in Executive Healthcare Leadership, which allowed me to take on leadership roles and contribute to the advancement of nursing practice from an administrative perspective. However, over time, I found myself missing the personal, hands-on connection with patients at the bedside—something that has always been at the heart of why I became a nurse. This calling led me to return to school to pursue my Family Nurse Practitioner degree. I am currently enrolled and on track to graduate in December 2027. I am passionate about blending my leadership experience with direct patient care to improve outcomes and advocate for those in need.

Career goal

My long-term professional goal is to obtain certification in Emergency Medicine as a Family Nurse Practitioner, combining my critical care experience with advanced clinical practice in high-acuity settings. Following that, I plan to pursue my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) as my terminal degree.
