What inspired you to get into medicine?
My mom is a nurse, so I was always around the nursing aspect of medicine. I love working with people, so I went into nursing. It wasn’t until I worked in the ICU, ER and recovery room up in Fargo that I realized I wanted to go into anesthesia.

What do you like to do in your downtime?
Most of my downtime is spent with my four daughters. We all love to draw and do arts and crafts. I feel very fortunate that my daughters also love sports and outside activities. Canada is one of our favorite spots to go fishing with my husband, John!

What is one interesting, unique or fun thing that most people may not know about you?
I played college basketball for the University of North Dakota but was also recruited by other colleges for volleyball.
