Since I was a childn all I ever wanted to be with a nurse. My mother was a nurse, and I felt like it was the most admirable profession to be somebody that helps others.

In my tenure at saint Francis. I learned so many things and stretched my my knowledge to cover as many things as I could so I could help many different patient populations and help make sure that all units were staffed appropriately because because patient safety is key..

During that time I had two little girls, Two little boys custody, And fostered a medically needy heart/vent baby for 5 years.

I feel like all of these experiences I bring to my travel nursing career and they help me in every situation.

I'm able to pull on a lot of different. Exposures to be able to meet all of my patient's needs regardless of their subspecialty. I'm also able to better meet the needs of patients and their families because I know what it's like to be a parent on the other end of the bed with little control over what happens to your child.

I love my career, and will continue to do it well into my old age, It is truthfully my life's purpose and so very fulfilling to me.
