Summary

Family Nurse Practitioner who has been working as a hospice/palliative care nurse practitioner for the last six years. Prior to my APRN degree, I worked as a hospital inpatient nurse for over nine years. Experience includes medical, surgical, critical care, ICU, and PICU. I grew up in the Kansas City suburbs and returned in 2018 to put down roots with my wife and two young children. Looking for a PRN job, in the RN role, to aid in flexibility of spending time with my family. I feel Embark Behavioral Health would be a great fit as my time as a pediatric ICU nurse was enjoyable and want to see the Embark kids succeed in life.
