Biography
I am a clinician and midwifery educator with 17 years of combined nursing and midwifery experience providing health care to underserved populations. I have practiced full scope women's health in a variety of settings including hospital and community. My current settings are hospital, birth center and home birth. As a community midwife, I have established relationships with varied health care providers in multiple settings.My interests in the factors that draw students to nursing and especially midwifery have inspired me to support a diverse group of students through mentoring and precepting. Through my career I have worked as a preceptor for nursing students, graduate nurses, midwifery students and as an attending for medical residents. Precepting and teaching are an important way to encourage the diversity of our healthcare workforce. I am deeply committed to the education and success of our new colleagues through personalized support. My goal is to build our nursing and midwifery community through outreach, recruitment and mentoring of our new fellows.
