About
Education
- Master of Science in Nursing, Frontier Nursing University, Versailles, KY
I’ve always had a drive to take care of people – and, as a certified nurse midwife, I also have a great desire to help women and families bring children into the world. Labor and delivery is a special calling. Seeing the happiness in someone’s eyes as they hold their newborn for the first time – and the amazement on the faces of spouses and partners as they witness and take part in this life-changing experience – is incredible.
In midwifery, skilled communication is essential in order to foster strong relationships with patients, families and interdisciplinary medical and caregiving teams. I believe in shared decision making and in helping empower patients to actively participate in their care. When people understand their options, they can make the best and most informed decisions about their health. This kind of empowerment is key as women, their partners and their caregivers strive for the very best birth experiences and outcomes.
When I’m not at work, I love spending time with my husband and three children. I love to read, and we all love sports.
