Major: Nursing
Class: 2012
Home town: Eau Claire, Wis.
Why did you pick MSOE?
I picked MSOE because I love the city of Milwaukee and I wanted to pursue a nursing program that I could begin immediately.
What do you like about MSOE?
I like the professors at MSOE and how they know me by name and have my best interests in mind.
What would you tell someone who is considering coming to MSOE?
For those considering MSOE, they should know that it is not for the faint of heart! We work very hard, but those who graduate from MSOE are exceptional nurses! I would also suggest volunteering or community service to stay grounded.
What do you do in your free time?
In my free time, I enjoy running along Lake Michigan, listening to music, lectoring at St. John's Cathedral, and going to Milwaukee Brewers games with friends.
Are there any groups or clubs you're involved in?
Currently, I am involved with MSOE Student Nurses' Association and the Student Advisory Committee for the School of Nursing. I am also a mentor for both the MSOE Mentor Program and YMCA One on One Mentor Program.
My educational goals include obtaining a bachelor's degree in nursing from MSOE and continuing my education by pursuing a master's degree in advanced practice in neonatal nursing.
