Biography

My nursing experiences have included the emergency room, chronic disease management, program development, working with marginalized populations, family practice and undergraduate nursing education.  A graduate of McMaster University’s Post-Masters Primary Health Care Nurse Practitioner Diploma program in 2010, I have a passion for primary care including its key components of health promotion and disease prevention.  I consider myself a ‘generalist’, thoroughly enjoying the wide spectrum of acuity, conditions and populations seen in primary care.

I am interested in advanced nursing practice and interprofessional education, particularly enhancing role and scope clarity amongst different healthcare professionals.  I am committed to seeing nurse practitioners and interprofessional teams realize their full potential within the healthcare system.
