About Me
Biography
Outside of my career, I spend most of my time at home with my husband and daughter on our farm, We have dogs, chickens and horses. We love being outdoors, visiting Lake Viking, Missouri, and hunting on our farm.
Care Philosophy
I try my best to listen to each patient as I would a family member or close friend. By placing my self in the patient's position, it helps me to better understand concerns and to develop a plan of care to best treat and fully support the patient.
Area of Interest
I particularly enjoy heart failure management and advanced therapies to support incisional healing (i.e., wound care, wound vacuum therapy). I also very much enjoy teaching evidence-based practice and supporting our nursing staff who care for heart patients throughout our facility.
