Welcome to my home page. I would like to provide you with a bit of background about myself. I have been practicing nursing since 1978 and teaching nursing since 1980. I taught in the Mennonite College of Nursing (MCN) baccalaureate nursing program until 1995, when I began teaching in the Family Nurse Practitioner sequence of the MCN graduate program.
I am nationally certified through the American Nurses Credentialing Center as both a Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and an Adult Nurse Practitioner (ANP). I completed the Post-Graduate Family Nurse Practitioner Program at the University of Missouri-Columbia. I received my doctorate in Educational Administration and Foundations, Higher Education, from Illinois State University. My master's degree is in Adult Health Nursing from the University of Illinois-Chicago and my bachelor of science in nursing degree is from Illinois Wesleyan University.
My primary clinical area as a registered nurse was medical-surgical nursing, with my favorite specialty area being orthopaedics. Since becoming a family nurse practitioner, I have maintained a clinical practice with a ten-physician internal medicine group. I see clients age 13 and above, although most are adult and elderly clients. I feel it is very important to maintain my clinical practice in order to provide my students with up-to-date information regarding primary care. It also gives me the opportunity to bring "real-world" examples and case studies into my classroom.
