About Us
Who We Are
Let's face it - nursing school is not easy! Everyone needs help at some point. As two experienced nurses with decades of direct care experience and over ten years of educating students in both clinical and classroom settings, we are deeply passionate about supporting students on their journey to becoming the best nurses they can be. Our hands-on experience and commitment to education inspired us to create our own student support service, designed to reach as many aspiring nurses as possible. We are dedicated to providing the guidance, resources, and personalized support students need to thrive in nursing school and beyond.

"I began my career in industry working as a biologist. I volunteered as an EMT and eventually decided to go to nursing school. I started with an associates degree, then my bachelor's, then my masters in nursing education, and I am currently finishing up my PhD in Nursing Research and Education. I am a Certified Emergency Nurse and a Certified Healthcare Simulation Educator. My specialty area is pathophysiology, critical care, and clinical judgment. I cherished my years working in direct care in the Emergency Department...but teaching was always the end game. I love seeing my students mature and grow into amazing new nurses!"

"Nursing was something I always envisioned myself working in since I was a kid. As I've honed my skills in direct care, I could see the new nurses struggling around me and knew I had to do something to help. What started as teaching informally has inspired me to get my master's and work full time educating student nurses. I love being in clinical and simulation, using my experience and knowledge to help students reach their full potential."
