I love sharing my knowledge of Respiratory Care, Sleep Health, and Pulmonary Diagnostics in ways that matter. I know that relationship-based patient care and the promotion of high-quality, value-added respiratory care services are the right way to care for lung patients, regardless of the phase of life they find themselves in. Today, after a long career caring for those with illness, I am inspired to help others live the best life that they can in wellness. Are you ready to join me? GOAL: TO BE A VIBRANT 99-YEAR-OLD! I'm a highly regarded professional with an excellent reputation. I've earned credentials in pulmonary diagnostics (RPFT), adult critical care (ACCS), and clinical sleep health (CCSH). I have advanced experience in project management related to COPD and Asthma (AE-C). I LOVE to learn and share my experiences. I have experience teaching respiratory therapists in a college setting (MSEd), patients at the point of care, and interdisciplinary clinicians as part of the healthcare team. I am a licensed Respiratory Care Practitioner (RCP) in Illinois. I also have earned my Certified Health Coach (CHC) credential from the National Society of Health Coaches and volunteer with patient advocacy and professional organizations. Earned credentials demonstrate my commitment to excellence and to the highest level of care for you, my valued client. Years ago, I learned the value of simple organizational principles for household management. If you want to talk about career-life balance, organization, self-care, sleep, or just someone who can understand the most difficult job in the world, I'm here. I'm also a mama of 6. That's right, SIX kids ranging in age from mid-30s to elementary school. Let's connect.
