Objective Seeking a position as a Family Nurse Practitioner in a family centered environment with

opportunity for continual professional growth.

I was born and raised in Quincy, IL. My husband and I love the community and have

decided to raise our family in Quincy where our kids will get to grow up spending time with

their grandparents and cousins because, to us, family is our number one priority. I am

passionate about my nursing career and I am looking forward to finding a position that will

allow me to grow along with it; gaining new knowledge and skills along the way. I have

experience in many areas of nursing and I believe these experiences have helped to prepare

me for my new career as a Family Nurse Practitioner.
