Summary
Compassionate caregiver and Yoga Instructor with experience assessing individual physiological and emotional processes. I help clients understand how stress may be held in their body and encourage them to stay grounded so that they can have a deeper interaction with this symbiosis.
I feel confident working with diverse populations creating a rapport to support their individual healing needs. I am devoted to healing that embraces the many different layers of ourselves that are involved and I feel strongly that healing requires a combination of modalities for meaningful and practical success.

Work History
Registered Nurse
University Of Vermont Medical Center
01.2011 - 03.2021
As a registered nurse I was trained to give compassionate care in a high acuity clinical setting. This included monitoring a diverse patient population that required close collaboration with surgeons and social workers to holistically support the patients through their process in the hospital.
Provided education to the patients and their families to acquaint them with their physiology and the support they would need physically and emotionally post discharge.
Provided clinical education to new nurses that also involved emotional support as they were introduced to a high stress environment that requires a unique skill set to stay grounded in the hospital environment.
