Summary
Dedicated Registered Nurse with a passion for patient advocacy and education. I am committed to fostering a safe environment and empowering patients and their families during one of their most impactful experiences in life. It was after my own experience with the birth of my first baby, that I knew that Labor and Delivery would be the field of nursing I would pursue. The exceptional level of care, knowledge and unwavering support I was surrounded with throughout my journey is what I strive to provide every mother with.
