I have been a pediatric nurse practitioner (PNP) at Community Choice Pediatrics since 2010. My nursing experience before becoming a PNP was all pediatric. I spent more than 10 years in the pediatric intensive care unit, emergency department, primary care clinics and medical-surgical inpatient units. I also taught BSN nursing students and worked in nursing administration. Taking care of healthy newborn babies through critically ill teenagers (and everything in between) prepared me well for my role here as a PNP.When my family moved to Missouri from Nebraska in 2007, a neighbor recommended this practice for my children’s care. I brought my kids in for their well-child visits and was so impressed with the office that I applied for a job to work as a part-time nurse.A few months later, one of our other PNPs encouraged me to go back to school to become a nurse practitioner. Being a PNP is my favorite nursing role. I love seeing how much kids grow and change through normal well-child checkups and empowering parents to care for sick children.Outside of work, my family and I love to travel and be anywhere on the water. Our children are older now, so I have been through all the parenting stages (the great and the not-so-good!). I am always happy to talk about the joys and challenges of raising kids.

For as long as I can recall, I wanted to work in pediatrics. The journey started when I became a staff RN at Lee’s Summit Physicians Group (now Community Choice Pediatrics) in 2009 after obtaining my Bachelor of Science in nursing from St. Luke’s College.As my love for pediatric primary care grew, I then chose to return to school to complete my Master of Science in Nursing at the University of Missouri-Kansas City and began working as a Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner at our Raintree office in 2014What I love best about being a PNP is getting the opportunity to form lasting relationships with the patients and families I see in my office each day. If there’s one thing I believe whole-heartedly in when it comes to pediatrics, it is that pediatric primary care is never just about the child. It’s about caring for and educating the whole family.In my free time, I’m a huge sports fan and enjoy cheering on my favorite local teams, the Kansas Jayhawks, Kansas City Chiefs and Kansas City Royals. I also love chasing after my sons, random date nights with my husband, running on my treadmill and reading on my Kindle late into the night.Here’s a fun fact about me: Before becoming a PNP and starting a family, my husband and I lived in Colorado for a couple of years and spent nearly every weekend in the mountains snowboarding. I hope to teach my boys to snowboard someday.
