About

Recently graduated from MidAmerica Nazarene University with a double degree in psychology and sociology, I plan to work directly in the helping professions. Currently, I serve as the Human Resources Director at Pinnacle Ridge Nursing and Rehabilitation where I enjoy assisting residents and employees alike. I provide support to the management team and work under the supervision of the administrator to ensure the best care for the residents and the best work environment for our employees. As I grow professionally, I hope to be involved in the practical issues of caring for others. I would love to get involved in an organization helping children and families, or disaster relief. Traveling and culture are very important to me, and I seek to understand other cultures and improve my cultural competencies.
