What I'm looking for

I seek a clinical role combining acute critical care and telemedicine where I can lead multidisciplinary teams, improve quality outcomes, mentor staff, and expand virtual care services.

I am a board-certified Adult-Gerontology Primary Care and Acute Care Nurse Practitioner with 12+ years of critical care experience across multiple healthcare settings, including ICU, hospital medicine, hospice, home health, and telemedicine.

I deliver high-quality acute, primary, and virtual care and am licensed in 27 states, maintaining DEA registrations and an X waiver to support comprehensive medication-assisted treatment.

Clinically, I manage complex critical care patients (Medical, Cardiac, Neuro ICUs), perform advanced procedures, oversee ventilator and hemodynamic management, and lead multidisciplinary teams to improve outcomes and reduce readmissions.

I have extensive telemedicine experience—synchronous and asynchronous—supporting overnight hospitalist coverage, nationwide nursing facility coverage, and virtual primary/psychiatric care, and I emphasize quality improvement, education, and evidence-based practice.
