I have been a registered nurse for over 27 years with 25 years working in Neonatal Intensive Care (NICU). Earned my Master of Nursing with a clinical nurse leader certification from the University of San Franscico in 2015. I hold national certifications for High-Risk Neonatal Nursing & Obstetrical /Neonatal Quality and Safety. In May of 2023 I joined Sutter as the Manager for the NICU at MMC.  In addition to working with neonates my other passion is mental health. I am an adjunct professor for San Joaquin Delta College as a clinical instructor for psychiatric nursing. I hold a mental health first aid certification and am a certified heart math instructor.
