What I'm looking for

I’m looking to collaborate in an established acute care practice, contributing as a dual-certified APRN/DNP. I want a team-based, patient-focused environment where I can apply quality improvement and deliver excellent outcomes.

I’m a highly motivated dual certified DNP pursuing collaboration within a successful, established practice in an acute care setting. I always strive for excellence and believe the best way to achieve it is through a team-based patient-focused approach.

I hold adult gerontology acute care and family nurse practitioner certifications and have advanced my practice through Quality Improvement & Leadership training at Frontier Nursing University. I’ve also completed an IHI Quality Improvement Practicum, strengthening how I lead and evaluate care to improve outcomes.

My work spans advanced practice roles across internal medicine, gastroenterology, and cardiology, along with independent contractor per diem coverage for EPS, Cardiology, ID, Neuro, Pulm, and Hospitalist teams. With a background rooted in critical care and progressive bedside nursing experience, I’m ready to deliver high-quality acute care while partnering closely with clinicians and patients.
