When I’m not teaching, I love to: Read, cook for friends, work out, travel, spend time with family and friends.

In my classes, students can expect: Rigor and high expectations, but also the path to meet those expectations.

My best advice to a new student in my program is: Do your best and communicate often.

Because of my influence, I most want my students to become: People who are intentional with their words and actions. For the nurses….for them to live and act within the art and science of nursing.

The myth-busting truth about my discipline I most want people to understand is: It is not all “blood and guts.” Well….only a small part.

A quote that influences how I live is: “The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.” – Frederick Buechner
