Biography
As a critical care nurse practitioner at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I do my best to always relay information to patients and their families in a way that’s easy for them to understand. After spending time on the patient side of the spectrum, I understand how helpful it is to have someone sit down with you and make sure you clearly understand everything that’s happening.
My favorite part of my job is helping patients and making a positive difference in their lives. At Ohio State, there is always someone willing to help or explain things to you, which is why I love working in an academic medical center.
When I’m not working or spending time with my family, I enjoy reading and baking.
