My Clinical Journey
I graduated with my BSN in 2010 and spent my career navigating the fast-paced, critical worlds of acute healthcare. Over the years, I developed a deep respect for the precision of modern medicine through a diverse clinical background.
Pediatrics (2 years): Nurturing young patients with patience and precision.
PACU & OR (5 years): Managing acute patients before, during, and after surgery at a busy outpatient-surgery center
Operating Room at the hospital level (8.5 years): Serving as a perioperative nurse in high-stakes environment, specializing in orthopedics, total joint replacements, and neurosurgeries. Also proficient in urology, plastics, general, robotics, breast cancer, ENT, and gynecology.
I loved the power of clinical nursing, but my deepest lessons in health didn't happen in the hospital. They happened when my own world turned upside down during a severe battle with Long Covid.
After consulting five different medical doctors, I was given the devastating prognosis: I would likely be bedbound for life.
As a nurse, I know modern medicine has its boundaries. As a Christian, I knew my story wasn't over. Refusing to accept that prognosis, I turned my clinical eye inwards and began looking for the root causes of my illness. I dove headfirst into intensive holistic experimentation, including nervous system regulation, stellate ganglion nerve blocks, food as medicine, iron infusions, lifestyle detoxing, saunas, and strict sleep hygiene. Slowly, my body began to heal.
The Power of Both
Modern medicine has massive power to save lives, but holistic medicine has the power to restore them. I believe wholeheartedly in the integration of both.
I learned how to rebuild my body from the ground up. Now, I am a certified nurse health coach finishing up my MSN in Nursing Education. I partner with you to dig past your surface-level symptoms and design a lasting lifestyle of health and vitality.

Outside the Clinic
I believe we are fearfully and wonderfully made, designed to experience a full, active, and balanced life. When I am not coaching or completing my final MSN classes, you can find me celebrating my health in God's creation - hiking a local trail, out on the water stand-up paddleboarding, traveling the world, spending quality time with loved ones, or simply curling up with a great book.
I can't wait to partner with you on your path to deeply rooted living.
Modern medicine has the power to save lives, and holistic medicine has the power to restore them. I believe in both.
