A little bit about me- I am a native to Alliance and graduated in 2004 from AHS.  During my time in High School I had various jobs, but helping people was always where I found myself.  As a young child I remember helping elders in my neighborhood whether it be laundry or cleaning.  At age 16 I became a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and then went on to become a Medication Aide (MA).  I worked at Good Samaritan, Marian Residence, and Home Health before heading off to college to become a License Practice Nurse (LPN).  I graduated as an LPN in 2007 and continued to work in Long Term Care and also started work at the local Urgent Care in North Platte, Nebraska.  In 2010, I went back to school for my Registered Nursing Degree.  After this I went on to work in Dialysis (Inpatient and Outpatient) and then on to Nebraska Heart Institute. In 2015,  I returned home to marry the love of my life- also an Alliance native. I began working at Box Butte General Hospital (BBGH) as the Dialysis Nurse Manager.  I continued my education at this time and obtained a bachelor's in Nursing in 2017 and continued in this position until completing my Master's in Nursing in 2019.  I became a Family Nurse Practitioner and moved into a new role at The Greater Nebraska Medical and Surgical Services (GNMSS) family practice clinic, in 2019.  You can still find me there full time!  I decided to add this new adventure when my patients started to inquire about hormone health and options for treatment.  As I started referring patients outside the community for certain treatment options I felt it would be a great addition to our community to bring more services here. After obtaining more training and education here we are.  I have always been interested in holistic options as well as western medicine so this way I am able to do both!  Let me know how I can help improve your quality of life and help you feel your best!
