About Me

I have over twenty-two years of experience as a nurse practitioner and am certified as both a women’s health and family nurse practitioner. Throughout my career, I have taught didactic, hybrid, and clinical nursing classes. I have also been a preceptor to medical and nursing students for 16 years.

I have worked in private practice for the majority of my career. During that time, I have assisted in surgery, rounded in the hospital, delivered continuing education courses, conducted research, and presented at national conferences. My areas of clinical practice include OB/GYN, Reproductive Endocrinology/Infertility, Family Practice/Retail Health, and Pulmonary/Sleep Medicine.

I reside with my husband in Illinois, and in my free time, I enjoy cooking and spending time outdoors. I look forward to working with students and assisting them on their path to becoming a Family Nurse Practitioner.
