A few things about me:

• I am a Registered Nurse and Certified Diabetes Educator
• I am a wife and a mom
• I am an avid reader and kayaker (although participated in both much more prior to becoming a mom!)
• I am blessed and grateful to have a job I love- being able to make a difference in the lives of people with diabetes

A few times in my career I have been asked if I am trying to cure diabetes. Although I wish I could say yes- I am very passionate about my job of educating everyone with diabetes so that they can have the best quality of life and not let the diagnosis of diabetes control them. The American Diabetes Association recommends maintaining an A1C under 7 to decrease the risk of complications. So simply put- my goal is to help everyone experience “life under 7.”
