 What are the biggest challenges facing the profession?

One of the biggest challenges facing the profession is identifying and supporting our future leaders in healthcare policy, research, and education. We need to provide opportunities for leadership and growth to CRNAs throughout their education and career.

What experiences, ideas, connection or resources do you have that would allow you to help with those challenges?

I am committed to helping CRNAS develop their skills in policy, research, and education to help advance their own careers as well as the profession as whole.  I am excited to help develop and provide mentorship opportunities for CRNAS throughout their entire careers.

Name one skill or strength you possess that is unmatched by your colleagues or peers

As a Nurse Scientist and an Assistant Professor, I have the experience and relationships to help mentor and support other CRNAs.

What do you love about being a CRNA? What drew you to the profession?

I love the opportunity to provide patient-centered, individualized care. The science of anesthesia is very interesting, but I have always been drawn to the “art of anesthesia” and being able to figure out how to make sure a patient is relaxed as possible as well as safe and comfortable throughout the procedure. 

Please provide at least one idea you believe will engage or involve members to advance NYSANA’s mission.

I would love to develop “research/topic interest groups” to help join people with similar interests throughout the state to help advance the science of Nurse Anesthesia.
