She is an ANCC board-certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and a former pediatric medical-surgical nurse. She earned a bachelor's degree in behavioral neuroscience from Lehigh University in 2003 and a master of science in nursing from Yale School of Nursing in 2006.

Within her previous positions in emergency psychiatry, inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, her private practice, and pediatric medical-surgical settings, she focused on the integration and interdependence of physical and mental health. The health assessment skills she acquired through this expansive background allow her to apply real-life clinical scenarios and relevant expertise to her teaching of health assessment to BSN and MSN students.
