I have been in the medical field & patient care as either a Certified Medical Assistant assisting surgeries or a Registered Nurse in Intensive Care Unit, Progressive Care Unit, Medical/Surgical Units, & Emergency Department for a grand total of 13 years. I have studied abroad & lived with a family in Cuernavaca, Mexico to study Spanish. I studied abroad for my junior year of nursing school in Basseterre, St Kitts, West Indies for my Bachelors in Science of Nursing. I have worked in many different demographics & cultures including Alaska, Kentucky, St Kitts, Texas, & US Virgin Islands. I currently am licensed in 25 US States & Guam. 

This last year I was crew on a 50 foot Beneteau monohull sailboat from Canada to Thailand completing a 15,000 nautical mile journey. During this journey we visited Canada, the West USA Coast, Mexico, French Polynesia, Marquesas, Fakarava, Rangiroa, Tahiti, Mo'orea, Bora Bora, Niue, Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, & Myanmar. While visiting these countries we were greeted by many people, many walks of life, many cultures, many religions, & many opportunities to bring environmental, ocean, plastic, clean water, & health awareness.

I am very accustomed to respecting other cultures, religions, giving quality care, & advocating for my patients. Additionally I am from a family of Lutheran Missionaries who have traveled to Tanzania, Peru, & Mexico to name a few.
