About

When you come to Fresno Pacific University there is a different "vibe." With personal experience as a student in the master's in nursing program, the teachers and the staff showed interest in me and my success in the program. The care and warmth I felt was something I have not felt before. The love of Jesus was apparent! With this type of support, it ignited my motivation to complete my masters/FNP in nursing and to share my experience with others.

It was a no-brainer that I chose to teach at Fresno Pacific because I want to foster this warm culture with students who want to become registered nurses.

Additional Information

My husband and I have two young boys. They keep us busy and we love every minute! In my spare time, I try to stay active by running half-marathons/10Ks and playing tennis. Fun fact, my husband and I love nerdy things like Disney and "Star Wars."
