| I am a native of Houston, Texas. I have
attended school in Louisiana, Ohio, and Texas over the years. I have
worked in Texas and Ohio. My work experience includes postsecondary
education, hospital-based nursing education, staff nursing, management,
administration, and nurse practitioner experiences. My recreational
activities include fishing, collecting frogs (for me) and clowns (for my
husband), reading when I can find the time, going to the movies, traveling
when my work schedule permits, spending time with my husband and family -
- my newest is bird watching. A very special time is attending church with
my husband. I hold memberships with TNA, ANA, Sigma Theta Tau
International Honor Society, Phi Delta Kappa Fraternity Honor Society for
Education, Texas Nurse Practitioner Association (local and state), NONPF, and the Sickle
Cell Disease Association of Greater Fort Worth, TX.
