My one true passion is nursing. I have a desire to continue to learn every day and continue my advancement in my field. I am thankful daily for the lives I am able to touch and it is my goal to at minimum, say a kind word or smile, and somehow improve each situation at least for that moment. I am empathetic and compassionate, and continue to develop and mature over time. My experiences I have had during my career have been extensive, from birth to death, and nearly every situation in between. I am a dedicated employee, and will work hard to represent and reach or exceed the goals set forth for me.

I work as a Collaborative Nurse for one of the busiest physicians in our office.

Registered Nurse

Boone Hospital Center - Columbia, MO

September 2014 to August 2021

My last position held was working in the Interventional Radiology Department. It is a very challenging and interesting department. It is ever changing, and I learned new things every day. I was previously a full time float nurse, and worked in areas from ER, and ICU, Stepdown, and all of the floors. I was on several committees, Quality Improvement, Management team, and several others. They enabled me to learn about other departments and help to make changes and advocate for, not only our patients but our staff as well. Quality assurance was a large part of those committee memberships and projects. Staffing Agency
