I am the Assisted Living Nursing Supervisor for The Peaks. I have a Masters of Arts in Applied Psychology degree and have been a practicing nurse for 30 years. I've worked in diverse areas of nursing including emergency, orthopedics, medical/surgical, pediatric, postpartum, public health, prison, lCU, and homecare.

As an executive in homecare, I loved teaching and coaching the nurses to give better care, but missed the connection with the patient on a regular basis. When I saw The Peaks’ mission statement, I knew this was the place for me. I believe healing needs to happen an all levels – physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual.

I am married and have four adult children and a beautiful grandson. My husband and I moved to Flagstaff in May of 2007 and absolutely love it!
