About 

Besides teaching at CSM, I also enjoy homeschooling my children, gardening, traveling, foraging, growing my own tea, and cooking healthy, hearty meals.

 

Educational Background 

After graduating in 2002 with a biology degree from Evangel University, I realized my passion was nursing.  I completed a bachelor’s in nursing in 2006, received my master's in nursing education in 2012, and am now working on a Ph.D. in nursing education.
