Summary

Licensed Practical Nurse with 18 years of experience delivering compassionate, reliable care in long-term, rehab, and agency roles. I lead with heart, stay grounded under pressure, and believe in treating every person with dignity. Just as I care for people, I feel deeply connected to the natural world—drawn to wide open spaces, wildlife, and the quiet responsibility of protecting them. Whether I’m tending to patients or trails, my purpose stays the same: to serve with presence, care, and respect.
