I received my nursing degree from Arthur B. Ancker Memorial School of Nursing and also earned a B.S. in Community Service and an M.S. in nursing from the University of Minnesota. I have a diverse work history – I've held positions of staff nurse, shift and unit supervisor, medical clinical nurse specialist and education coordinator, to name a few.

In my position as Head of Staff Development, I like to stress team work as means to attain a goal of excellent customer service.

I am married with three children. I enjoy my cabin retreat, fishing, embroidery, cooking and spending time with family and friends.
