My life passion is to take care of and provide comfort to patients in need. I was unable to pursue my dream until I was able to take a severance package and leave the retail company I had worked with for 22 years. After traveling in an RV, with my husband, for about 6 years, where we were able to see God's beauty and meet wonderful people, I was encouraged by my husband to pursue my dream. I worked to Arizona Western a college in Yuma, Arizona. I became employed in the ER of the local trauma center. I remained there for approx 5 years. We moved to Jacksonville, FL. In May of 2012, and I became at Mayo Clinic where I work in Cardiovascular, and Progressive Units of the Hospital. I have spent the past 2 1/2 years in Mayo Family Medicine Outpatient Clinic.
