I'm a dedicated Registered Nurse based in Nokomis, Florida, with over six years of experience in healthcare. As of June 2026, I serve patients at Sarasota Memorial Hospital in Venice. I've built my career on a foundation of compassionate, patient-centered care.
My journey in healthcare began as a Caregiver and Certified Nursing Assistant, where I discovered my passion for helping others. While working as a CNA at Englewood Hospital, I earned my Associate of Science in Nursing from State College of Florida in 2023. I then progressed from Nurse Extern to Registered Nurse at the same hospital, completed my Bachelor of Science in Nursing in 2025, and stepped into my current role at Sarasota Memorial Hospital in Venice in June 2026.
Certified in NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS), Basic Life Support (BLS), and Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS), I thrive in fast-paced, high-pressure environments. My roots in the Cambridge AICE Program at North Port High School and dedication to lifelong learning have equipped me to adapt and excel in dynamic healthcare settings.
Outside the hospital, I enjoy spending time with my husband, boating on Florida's beautiful waters, and staying active at the gym.
