What drew you to health care, and how did you get started?

I grew up in a family of nurses. My great-grandmother, great-aunt and mother are all nurses. Their dedication, care and compassion made a big impact on me at a young age. When I started thinking about what career I wanted, I was drawn to nursing. I started my nursing career as an emergency department and cardiac cath lab nurse before transitioning to the Partnership Comprehensive Care Practice.

I love to read and travel, especially with my family.

What is your favorite memory of working here so far?

The warm welcome I received from patients and staff alike! I am so grateful to work with such a wonderful community.

What’s something surprising that not many people know about you?
