I am passionate for nursing education, so that I can empower others and help grow the next generation of nurse leaders and health care innovators.

Why I’m At Mary

I am proud to be a graduate of the University of Mary with a master's in nursing education. I was immediately welcomed into the community and supported as a student. Now, as a full-time faculty member, I hope to emulate this hospitality to all I encounter.
