I have earned my Bachelor's of Science in Nursing from The College of Saint Scholastica. As a nurse, I have grown in my passion in educating my patients on their diagnoses, upcoming procedures, new medications, and discharge instructions. I also love teaching friends and family about medical phenomenons. Outside of work, I enjoy exploring the outdoors and going on hikes year round.

Instead of dumping loads of mostly useless information on students, I believe we should use a hands-on approach of teaching the what, why, and how of any subject. An intuitive understanding will get you miles further than a shallow perception.

I enjoy helping students learn material in a way they can remember and apply in future coursework.... Perseverance trumps brilliance every time. Ask questions and work hard, and there's nothing you won't be able to understand.... I would begin by asking a few questions to see where a student is. I would then provide a useful note sheet and go over a refresher of some of the concepts we would be focusing on.... I would talk...
