As an RN, I took a long career in caring for and communicating with patients and their families, bringing this experience to the written word. Since moving from clinical care to print, I have written many pieces of content for online and print outlets, including cover articles, blogs, columns, web copy, and newsletters for consumers and medical professionals.

I look at my writing as an extension of the bedside teaching nurses often don't have time for. When writing for professional audiences, I change my voice, but not my approach towards writing – language should always be easy to read and understand. You can listen to me speak about my work in this episode of The Health Design Podcast (https://t.co/Vyl2rCTP7x).
