I started out as a mechanical drafter in 1998, but soon realized that my calling was caring for the sick. I decided to become a nurse assistant and was hired at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center where I gained valuable skills and was inspired to continue my education. I continued through school until I finally obtained a Masters Degree in Nursing. I live in Rural Hall, NC. I am married and have 2 daughters. My hobbies include photography, painting, playing piano, hiking, fishing, and white water rafting. I am looking forward to starting my new career as a Family Nurse Practitioner!
