Even as a small child, health care was my passion; I was frequently seen bandaging my teddy bears and shadowing the veterinarian on our family farm. At the age of 16 I obtained my CNA license and haven't stepped foot out of health care since. In 2010 I earned my Bachelor of Nursing and was provided with a unique opportunity to step directly into critical care medicine in a tertiary care Emergency Department and ICU. Seven years ago, I began a journey as a flight nurse, and see myself continuing in for many years in the future. Outside of work, I am eclectic soul with many hobbies. I enjoy gravel biking and running, homesteading, and being a mother to my young son. If the weather is "Wisconsin Nice," you will find me outside.
