What are some interesting facts about you?

My time away from work is spent living vicariously through my 13 and 15-year-old daughters; one of whom is an artist/musician and the other plays travel soccer. I also enjoy spending time with my boyfriend and his 3 autistic sons. When kid free, I enjoy going to the gym, hiking, or spending time at the beach. Some people are naturally designed to take care of others. For 35 years I’ve wanted to work in healthcare. Being a nurse practitioner allows me to use a combination of education, experience, and natural disposition to assist others in maximizing their quality of life. There is little more fulfilling, to me, than this.
