I chose a career in medical education to support the training of healthcare providers. I am passionate about supporting the people who care for each of us, our families, friends, and communities during some of life’s most meaningful and vulnerable moments. Contributing to their development allows me to give back to those who dedicate themselves to supporting others each day.
I have two wonderful girls, a rescue lab, and a fantastic husband. Some of my favorite hobbies include DIY renovating our home, thrifting, and going to visit any body of water for a refresh.
