Brief description of your professional expertise/experience/reason for choosing your field:

Working in community health was the driving force toward becoming a Nurse Practitioner. Little did I know, I would get the opportunity to become a part of the Kenosha Community Health Center team. Each day when I drive to work, I pass my childhood home, the schools I went to, and occasionally, I run into an old neighbor or friend. It is truly an honor to be a part of this team and work towards improving the health of the people within our community, as well as the very neighborhood I grew up in.
