I graduated with a BSN RN in 1986 from South Dakota State University. I home schooled our children and worked primarily part time, with some occasional fulltime hours, for LTC/SNFs, small and large hospitals, Home Health, and as an EMT. Then when the children were grown, I worked fulltime in administration in a LTC/SNF facility a few years. Then, I worked fulltime in IP Dialysis in Fargo. I also worked as adjunct nursing faculty for NDSCS to create dialysis curriculum and teach a nurse aide course. Then I completed a MSN RN in 2015 from Minnesota State University Moorhead: the New Educator Track with the 3 Ps: Pathophysiology, Pharmacology, and Physical Assessment. I was then hired to be a Dialysis RN Clinical Educator for a large healthcare organization. I was the Dialysis Educator for 5 years fulltime. During the COVID pandemic, the educators were considered nonessential. Therefore, I worked instead for 11 months fulltime on hospital units in Fargo. Currently I am an adjunct MSUM Nursing faculty part-time and an online Winona State University graduate student to complete a DNP-PLI degree by Spring 2024. My hobbies are volunteering for a local church, spending time with our grand children and our grown children, taking walks with my husband of 36 years, and providing care for my elderly mother.
