“There is a story about the little boy who was throwing the starfish back into the ocean as the tide was going out. A man stopped him and asked him why he was doing this as there were so many starfish and he couldn’t possibly make a difference. At that point the boy bent down and gently tossed another starfish into the ocean and stated, ‘I made a difference for that one!’ I want to make a difference in the lives of the women and families I see."

Why I became a nurse?
“I have wanted to be a nurse/educator since I was a little girl. Becoming a nurse practitioner was a perfect fit for me. I developed a passion for women and children’s care as a labor and delivery and maternal life flight nurse at St.Francis. This was further fueled during grad school at the University of Illinois as I worked with midwives, pediatricians, and obstetricians.”Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology
