About Me

I am a dedicated healthcare professional, legal nurse consultant, and author with a passion for education, advocacy, and bridging the gap between nursing and the legal system. With over two decades of experience in nursing—spanning acute care, education, and legal consulting—I bring a unique perspective to my writing.

My academic journey includes an Associates in Nursing from Harford Community College and a Bachelor's in Speech Pathology/Audiology from Norfolk State University. Additionally, I hold multiple certifications in nursing, legal nurse consulting, and speech pathology. These diverse qualifications have shaped my expertise in patient care, legal case analysis, and medical education.
As. an author, I focus on topics that empower nurses, legal professionals, and healthcare educators. Whether writing about medical-legal issues, patient advocacy, or nursing education, my goal is to inform, inspire, and contribute to the professional growth of others in the field.
When I’m not writing, I continue to stay engaged in the legal nursing community, mentor aspiring healthcare professionals, and advocate for patient rights.
