Compassionate registered nurse specializing in home and public health.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Registered Nurse with five years of clinical experience across public health, pediatric long-term care, hospital units, and home health, committed to holistic, compassionate patient and family-centered care. I have coordinated care for diverse populations, led assessments and care planning in-home, overseen safety and training for childcare settings, and managed complex inpatient and perioperative responsibilities.
Recognized for excellence in nursing and leadership—nominated at Riley Hospital for Children and awarded by WGU for research on compassion fatigue—I collaborate effectively with interdisciplinary teams to improve workflow, patient outcomes, and resourcefulness while delivering high-quality, evidence-based care.
