I hold a PhD in Nursing Education from Nova Southeastern University. Earned a bachelor's Science in Nursing, preceding a Masters of Science in Nursing, as well as a Post-Master's Certificate all from Drexel University.
Having a diverse background that includes roles as an ATI Virtual and Capstone Educator, Assistant Professor, Legal Nurse Expert and a Staff Development Educator, and Nursing Faculty across various institutions alongside my certifications and affiliations reflect my commitment to advancing nursing education and practice. I am passionate about leveraging simulation to improve nursing education and clinical competencies.
