I graduated from the St Joseph’s and Nazareth Hospital School of Nurse Anesthesia in 2003 and completed my DNAP with a concentration in education in 2024, passing the certified nurse educator exam in 2024 as well.
I’ve worked clinically for over 20 years in a variety of settings, most recently as the Chief Nurse Anesthetist at Community Medical Center within the Robert Wood Johnson Barnabas Health System. I recently transitioned to education as an assistant professor at the Jefferson Nurse Anesthesia Program, while continuing to work clinically. I’m just starting my second year as the Federal Political Director for NJANA. I have a keen interest in advocating for our profession and highlighting our contributions to efficient and safe, high-quality patient care. I have been working closely with the public relations committee to support NJANA’s mission to increase member engagement. Outside of the anesthesia world, I live in Medford Lakes and enjoy running, yoga, and gardening. In my spare time, I love hanging out with my two grown daughters (both nurses), granddaughter, and my yellow lab, Harry.
