After earning my MSN in Education, I became a certified AHA instructor in BLS, ACLS, and PALS. I’ve trained thousands of nursing students and practicing RNs—from ED and ICU to OR and critical care—preparing them to respond confidently in high-stakes situations. I spent 10 years in the Emergency Department of a large four-hospital system with over 10,000 employees. During that time, I was honored to help launch and teach the system’s first EKG course, personally instructing nearly every RN hired onto a telemetry-capable unit during the program’s first two years. My nursing journey began on a med/surg floor, but I was always eager to grow. I jumped at opportunities to float to the ICU, inpatient mental health, and other specialty units. I also worked second jobs in LTAC and rehab settings to broaden my experience and clinical insight. Eventually, I followed my passion for teaching full-time—one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. As a college-level instructor, I’ve taught across all levels of nursing education, including Pharmacology, Med/Surg, Fundamentals, Leadership, and Critical Care, along with labs, simulation, and clinical instruction. Now, I’m bringing that same energy and commitment to helping you conquer the NCLEX.
