Orthopedic inpatient nurse practitioner, I care for patients post-operatively and those admitted for trauma. Graduated with my DNP as a Clinical Expert in 2019 from The Ohio State University. I have been published in a peer reviewed journal. I present at national and international conferences on the work that I've done since graduating which focuses on decreasing opioid use in children undergoing surgery. I just started teaching in the PNP program at The Ohio State University and enjoy that very much. I am very involved in committees at Nationwide Children's and have had the opportunity to assist in planning the annual APP conference for the past few years. I was recently the secretary and CE planner for the Ohio Chapter of NAPNAP and planned our 50th anniversary Statewide Conference in 2023.
