My nursing background is varied.  I have worked in home health, long-term care, emergency medicine, critical care,  and the immediate care environment.  The experience I earned in all of these genres helps me daily in my present position as a school nurse.  

My husband Ryan and I were married December 31, 1995.  We are the proud parents of four children, who have all attended or presently attend Augusta schools. Our oldest son was born in 1998, our only daughter 2001, the second son in 2003, and a final son in 2006.  We’re also the proud parents of four fur babies, three dogs, and one cat.  

In my spare time, I am an avid reader.  I also enjoy camping and fishing.  My two favorite places are the family farms in Iowa and Missouri.
