I have been with the CEC Nursing Program since January 2019.   I was a labor & delivery nurse in the beginning of my nursing career.  Then I moved to a Director position over various clinics for UNMH.  I have always loved teaching and after retiring from UNMH I was fortunate to obtain a faculty position here at CEC.
