Many aspects of my job bring me joy, but nothing brings me greater joy than supporting nurses as they progress though the perioperative training program and watching them develop into strong, confident Operating Room nurses. I hope to make a difference in our patients’ lives by being a strong patient advocate and teaching new OR nurses the importance in being the voice of the patient while under anesthesia. I try to be a consistent source of positivity and a reliable shoulder to cry on. I strive to be approachable and go above and beyond to help my colleagues in any way I can.
