I am the school nurse. I love being at Jefferson and am passionate about keeping your kids healthy and in school.  I have a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from MidAmerica Nazarene University located in Olathe, Kansas. I moved to Iowa in January 2013 from Olathe, Kansas thanks to a job transfer by my husband.  I joined the Des Moines Public School district as a substitute nurse in 2013 then joined the district full time in 2014.  Before coming to the schools, I was an OB nurse specializing in Labor and Delivery.

In my spare time, I love watching Kansas City Royals baseball. Go Royals!  I live in Ankeny with my husband and two boys.  I am passionate about travel and do so any chance I get. Our goal is to visit every Major League Baseball stadium in the country (and Canada).  So far we’ve been to 7!
