About Me

Hello! I'm a 57-year-old wife, mother and grandmother. I've been a nurse for 37 years but am currently retired. Though I worked med/surg telemetry, emergency room and intensive care, as well as roles in leadership for more than half my career, my specialty is palliative care and end of life care. My husband retired from health care finance this week and now we plan to travel. We have four adult children and four grandchildren. We love spending time with them. We also love to hike, cycle, kayak, snow ski and garden. We enjoy good food and are always learning more about health and nutrition. I am an avid reader. I'm writing a book about my journey of caring for my parents during their last years of life. I'm excited to share my writing with you along the way. ​
