I started out my career with a strong foundation established at a top-tier hospital. I possess a proven ability to provide comprehensive care from acute and chronic patients. My expertise spans ventilator management, CPAP/BiPAP maintenance, and diverse patient demographics, including pediatrics and neonates. Additionally, I've mastered the intricacies of home care and adeptly navigated insurance dynamics. Transitioning to specialized healthcare, I refined my skills in diagnostics like PFTs and Stress Tests, before discovering my true passion in Polysomnography. This convergence of patient care scientific inquiry fuels my drive. I was the first and only Inspire super-user in the Duluth area. In a new role, I bring a unique blend of hands-on proficiency, patient centered focus, and scientific curiosity. I am poised to enhance patient outcomes, foster collaboration, and contribute to your company's success. With 17 years as a Respiratory Therapist and 10 as a Polysomnographist, I bring expertise that bridges the gap between critical care and advanced sleep diagnostics. I hold active licenses in both Minnesota and Wisconsin for my RRT and RPSGT.

I helped co-create the Central MN Emergency Response Team while working as a Respiratory Therapist at St Cloud Hospital.
I was the first and only Super-User for Inspire in the Duluth area. This is where my passion for Inspire began.
