Why Cedarville?
I am honored to serve at Cedarville, where I can mentor and encourage students across majors as they prepare to serve Christ in their chosen fields. As a nurse educator, I have the privilege of helping future nurses grow in clinical competence and confidence as they learn to care compassionately for vulnerable patients through God’s strength and the Holy Spirit’s guidance. Relationships with students and colleagues enrich my life and challenge me to grow continually in Christ and in my teaching
