I have been a Registered Nurse for the past 8 1/2 years, in which I have dedicated my practice to the Intraoperative clinical setting. My father was an Operating Room nurse for over 25 years and recognizing his passion for the field, it became my professional goal to work in the department. My determined pursuit let me go immediately into the Operating Room, and my continued passion for the role let me excel. I have been well regarded by staff when I acted in a leadership position as Charge Nurse for the department. Currently, in recognition of my expertise I have transitioned into a Perioperative Educator.
