Summary

  • I have been practicing as a Nurse Practitioner for the last 3 years. Prior to obtaining my Master’s degree, I worked as a Registered Nurse for 10 years in several different settings. My approach to service and treatment is always patient centered. I’m a huge advocate for patient’s rights and encourage my patient’s to be involved in their own medical decisions. I strive on developing strong relationships with my patients and being the most compassionate, empathetic and nonjudgmental person so they can feel comfortable talking to me and opening up about their health concerns. I find that educating my patients and promoting a healthy lifestyle is an essential part of care as medication is not always the answer to every problem. Prevention is key to many diseases. I educate my patient’s not only on healthy lifestyles but disease processes, medication management and non-medication management options. I provide my care through evidence-based practice, clinical experience and personal observation. I find it rewarding when I see my patients living their best lives and coming back to me and saying thank you. I like to know that I have made a difference in my patient’s lives. It’s the most rewarding feeling and why I do this job. I was born on a farm in Wisconsin and moved to Chicago, IL when I was 18 years old where I was able to attend college and obtain my degrees.

    My hobbies include reading, trying new restaurants, tennis, travelling and many other things.
