Graduated with my BSN in May 2005 from Morningside College. Earned my MSN from Walden University in 2011. I achieved my Doctor of Nursing Practice with an emphasis in Organizational and Systems Leadership in August 2024. I also hold an advanced certification in Simulation, CHSE-A.
I really enjoy teaching in first semester, I take pride in the fact that I am one of the professors who set the tone for their next three semesters of nursing school. I enjoy utilizing a variety of learning techniques in the classroom in order to reach as many learners as possible. I am also passionate about simulation and working to bring relevant topics to the learners so they have a chance to practice and see a situation prior to having it happen with a real patient in the hospital. Simulation provides new nurses with experiences to pull from enabling them to recall what happened and what to do when those same situations present themselves in the hospital setting.
I am very interested in simulation research and how it can be utilized to further the learning, and possibly bridge the gap between the academic and hospital settings. I also have interest in looking into ways or tools/techniques to use to help alleviate some of the stress involved with first semester nursing students.
