Staff Nurse
I have been in the nursing career field since 1994, graduating from NTS as an LPN and then attaining my RN degree in 2021. I love being a nurse and taking care of students, the current challenges of health care have offered me a unique opportunity with two decades of experience to lean on. I feel that “Every Student Every Day” is the perfect mission statement for the University Wellness Center. I work with an absolutely amazing team of nurses and providers and assist in several roles on the Clinic side.
I am a proud “Bearcat Mom” with a Daughter and Son both graduating from Northwest Missouri State University. I have taken several classes here as well and enjoy getting to know other Northwest staff members. I love spending time with my family – having 6 grandchildren keeps me busy and happy. I enjoy spending time outdoors gardening, kayaking and camping. I love many different forms of music and attend concerts when I can. I love cooking and making birthday cakes for my family.
