The Wellness Gem

      I have been a registered nurse for over 14 years. My experience includes travel nursing, organ transplant, cardiac care, critical care, and now outpatient infusion nursing, caring for those with autoimmune diseases. As I grew in my career, my interests started to shift in healthcare and medicine. I have always been holistic at heart but it was with my own health that really made me branch out of traditional medicine for answers and support. I had struggles with my mental health, my gut health, and I found out I had Hashimoto's disease in 2021. 

     I sought out a functional medicine practitioner in regards to my symptoms because I wasn't getting all of the answers I needed with my GI doctor. It was such a life changing and comprehensive experience. I learned so much and was so fascinated that I signed up for a functional medicine nursing certification program through the Integrative Nurse Coach Academy. I was even more amazed at what I learned and knew I had to help others through this new knowledge I had gained.
