I have been married for 21 years and have two girls, age 16 and 10. I live in Smith Center.  It is located in North Central Kansas.  I have been a registered nurse since 1997.  I graduated from Cloud County Community College with my Associates degree and in 2018 completed my Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree.  I have worked in several areas of nursing including, surgery, emergency room both of which I was the manager, family practice and most recently acute care.  I look forward to continuing my education to receive my DNP and care for patients in the community I live in.
