Who I Am
I'm an advocate for constant improvement, embracing AI, machine learning, and automation not as buzzwords, but as tangible tools to enhance learning efficiency and alleviate educational challenges. I recognize that there's no magic formula to fit every learner. Education is about adapting to individual needs, leveraging technology to provide myriad opportunities for learning and growth.
Living in a digital world, I believe educators should be bullish in their pursuit of greatness. For me, greatness is defined by easing the burden on new nurses, improving hospital retention, reducing burnout, and enhancing the educational landscape for fellow educators. I’ve been in your shoes, and I'm here to make your journey to nursing excellence smoother, more enjoyable, and profoundly impactful.
I've always been deeply intertwined with the world of teaching and healthcare. This unique blend stems from my own journey as a nurse who has navigated the complex transition from academia to practice. My passion for science, creativity, and technology found its true calling in curriculum development and instructional design, a realization that crystallized while pursuing my Master of Science in Nursing Education at Western Governors University in 2017.
My mission is more than just teaching; it's about forging a legacy of engaging and effective education for healthcare providers. Each year, I'm privileged to guide thousands of adult learners, each on their unique path in patient care. My approach is unapologetically steadfast in certain beliefs about classroom success, yet I'm always open to learning and admitting when there’s a better way. This intellectual humility paired with a deep-rooted understanding of the nurse's journey fuels my desire to innovate.
