Being a practicing nurse for over 30 years and a nursing educator for approximately 15 years has been a wonderful, rewarding experience for me. Teaching in a professional school is an opportunity to give back to the profession. To open minds and hearts to the richness, purpose and honor of becoming a baccalaureate nurse.
