I became a nurse because it's a passion and a calling. I believe God called me to become a nurse and then a nurse practitioner. Nurse practitioners have knowledge like doctors but also the bedside manner of nurses. That that makes it more personalized and special for patients. My favorite part of being a nurse practitioner is building a trusting relationship and rapport with your patients-listening to them and meeting their spiritual and mental well-being as well as physical. I like being the person they can go to and trust to provide the best care for them. I establish relationships with patients by listening to them. In the rush of health care, they can feel like a number, but I want them to feel like a person. I want them to know I really do care about you and what you're going through and dealing with. I'll provide up-to-date evidence-based care. I believe it's my calling to be the hands and feet of Jesus to patients.

I love helping people, so I felt like nursing was a great career fit for me because I could do the most amount of good. I went into women's health because I felt a real connection with women during my clinicals. I want my patients to know they can trust me with sensitive subjects, and I'm going to listen to all of their problems and help them stay healthy.
