I was born and raised in Duluth, Minnesota. I became a medical provider when I was drafted/joined the U.S. Navy. I became a Navy Corpsman /USMC Medic and I loved it. That launched me on this amazing career! I love emergency medicine, especially cardiac care, stabilization, and treatment of acutely ill or injured patients appeal to me. What brought me to Waukon is that I love Northeast Iowa and I have worked in West Union, Manchester, Guttenberg, and now Waukon. VMH is a great little critical access hospital with great staff.
