AD Nursing Faculty, Nursing & Health Sciences

I am a dedicated nursing educator with a strong clinical and leadership background. I earned my Associate Degree in Nursing from National Park College in 2012 and my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Arkansas Tech University in 2014. I am currently pursuing my Master of Science in Nursing Education at Arkansas State University. My nursing career has taken me through a wide range of specialties, including acute care cardiology and renal nursing, critical care, acute rehabilitation, long-term acute care, and nursing leadership. My passion for teaching led me to join National Park College as adjunct clinical faculty in 2023. In 2024, I transitioned into a full-time faculty role in the Associate Degree Nursing program, where I am committed to mentoring and inspiring the next generation of nurses. I absolutely love what I do and feel truly blessed to help shape the future of nursing.
