I've been nursing over 20 years in a variety of critical care settings. I've worked with heart/lung/kidney/pancreas/liver transplant patients, cardiac surgery, thoracic surgery, renal, neuro, spine, trauma, and ER patient populations. I've been foreman on every jury I've served. I'm known for my integrity and sense of justice. My professional passions are new RNs and LVAD patients. I have a variety of other activities in my life including ballroom dancing, singing, and beekeeping, and I've been married for over 25 years.
