About Signature Freelance

I am a baccalaureate-prepared RN who has spent 15 years caring for people through some of the hardest times in their lives. From nursing our nation's Veterans, to directing healthcare in a county jail, to running beneath whirring helicopters as they arrive with a life hanging in the balance, I have loved the vastness of healthcare and rarely had the same workday twice.

Nursing is my calling, but writing is my passion. Clinical settings are not known as hotbeds for creativity, so I became a Nurse Writer. It’s the best of both worlds!

Knowing how to deliver important information to my patients, no matter their culture, age, or education level, has been critical to my career at the bedside. My ability to tailor a message for a specific audience is an especially handy skill when writing health content.

I believe in simplicity and efficiency. I appreciate direct, efficient communication and can be as connected or as removed as the situation requires.

Above all, I believe in kindness and have a jovial spirit. My main goal is to create a positive working relationship that gets more reliable and enjoyable over time.

Out of the office, I write fiction for pleasure, photograph all the things, build custom furniture, and spend as much time in nature as possible.
