I am blessed to belong to one of the best professions on the planet—I am a registered nurse!

I worked at Creighton from 2008-2022.  I had a wonderful time managing the student health center.  When the health center closed, I transitioned to the role of Associate Director Student Health and Student Insurance. I was charged with oversite of many compliance-related initiatives.  The best part of my work was that I had the privilege to walk with students as they managed new or existing health issues during their time as a Creighton student. I cannot articulate the joy these relationships brought.  Our students (and their families) are simply the BEST! 

I currently serve those with intellectual and developmental disability.  I learn from my patients every day!

I was born and raised in Omaha.  I attended Holy Cross grade school, and Mercy High School.  I went to nursing school at UNMC.  I chose the BEST profession in the world.  I love being a nurse!  I completed my MSN at Creighton in May 2020, during a global pandemic—proof that you’re never too old to learn and a testament to my stubborn nature.

I have a great husband who is an alum of CU and the CU School of Law.  He has a general practice here in Omaha.  We have three wonderful children who are truly putting their Jesuit educations into action!  We are proud parents.

I enjoy gatherings with family and friends.  I like to cook.  I am an avid sports fan.  Creighton teams are my favorite! I am blessed with a great family and wonderful friends.

I know God is always with me and I’m always on the lookout for the signs he sends my way to reassure me of His love and presence.  I look forward to the opportunity to participate in the ministry of Daily Reflections.  Intentional reflection time has helped me keep God as my center as I really try to live the Gospel.  This is a wonderful opportunity for me.  I pray the Holy Spirit guides me in my reflecting.
