I grew up in Washington, Missouri, where I first developed my passion for caring for children. I volunteered at the local hospital reading to children before their appointments. After high school, I went to the University of Missouri to study nursing and graduated with my BSN in 2014. My first nursing job was at University of Missouri Women’s and Children’s Hospital, where I worked for one year before moving to Kansas City.After moving to Kansas City, I accepted a job at Children’s Mercy Hospital on a medical-surgical floor specializing in neurology, endocrinology, and cystic fibrosis. Once at Children’s Mercy, I decided I wanted to return to school to become a nurse practitioner to further help the children and families in the Kansas City area. I graduated as a pediatric nurse practitioner in December 2018 and began working with Blue Springs Pediatrics (now Community Choice Pediatrics) in January of 2019.I met my husband, Reese, while in nursing school, and we were married at the Red Barn Farm in Weston, Missouri, in 2016. Reese is an outpatient physical therapist with Athletico Physical Therapy. We currently live in Lee’s Summit, Missouri. We have a goldendoodle named Koda, who is a sweet and energetic boy.

Born and raised in Kansas City, I am a dedicated Chiefs fan and a lover of good BBQ! I earned my BSN from Truman State University in Kirksville, MO, where I played and coached rugby for four years.I also spent a few months in the Philippines learning about healthcare overseas. Although I never mastered Tagalog, I gained insights into the ingenuity and dedication required to provide healthcare in a developing country.I then went on to obtain my Family Nurse Practitioner degree (MSN) from Loyola University in New Orleans. My healthcare career has taken me from Missouri to Ohio, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and back home to Kansas City. While I’ve tested the medical waters and treated patients of all ages, pediatrics is my passion, and I am excited to work with you and your little ones!When I am not at work, I spend my time adventuring with my husband, our two children, and our three fur-babies. We enjoy the lake, flying (my husband is a pilot), hiking, and watching our Chiefs win Super Bowls!.

I’m a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner who works primarily out of Community Choice’s Blue Springs location. I’ve worked for 25 years as a PNP, with 20 years being here with this great group. I can’t imagine working anywhere else.Before I focused on a nursing career, I always knew it would be some sort of service through healthcare. My first experience with caring for a child was when I lived in Hawaii and was asked to babysit a one-year-old girl. I had never worked with or even been around little children, much less one with special needs. Her club foot was in a cast, and she had a cleft lip and palate, which required a special nipple to feed her.Soon, I was hooked and knew healthcare was for me. But with my clinical experiences throughout my undergraduate degree and working, I never thought it would be in pediatrics — more so, adult nursing, but that was until I worked all three shifts in one week on the Orthopedic floor and the only opening was on Pediatrics. So, I took it — best move ever.I received my undergraduate nursing degree (BSN) at CMSU in 1982. I then went on to graduate school, where I received my master’s degree as a clinical nurse specialist in the care of children (MSN) at UMKC in 1990. My post-graduate nursing degree was through a program at UMKC for pediatric nurse practitioners in 1995.
