Biography

I came to Clayton State University as a student after being a nurse for over 10 years. The RN to MSN program taught me the foundation of being a nurse educator. Later, I completed the FNP program. During that time in school, I took students to clinicals at local psychiatric hospitals. I currently teach Psychosocial Transitions in the BSN program.
