With the Ashtabula Campus since 2004.

I have been a nurse educator for over 15 years with a expansive background in critical care, education, leadership, and nursing administration. I have primarily taught courses in leadership and management, research, and adult medical surgical nursing. My research interest is clinical reasoning and critical thinking developed during clinical experiences in undergraduate nursing education. My goal is to constantly strive to develop teaching strategies that meet the diverse needs of the nursing student.
