Teaching
I began teaching within the clinical and laboratory setting in 2017 and joined the faculty full-time in 2022. My teaching responsibilities expand across all years of the undergraduate program. Currently I coordinate the health assessment labs for first year students and instruct clinical and labs at the second, third- and fourth-year level. I also currently lecture the final theoretical course in the undergraduate program Current Issues in Nursing and Health Care.
My personal clinical nursing experience is within the acute medical/surgical and critical care setting. A large portion of my time is spent with students learning hands-on clinical skills while developing critical thinking abilities. I aim to provide a high level of support and challenge students to think of the intricate personal patient experience. I feel it is imperative to enable students to develop within their own personality as a nurse, while upholding the standards of nursing practice.
Research
