I completed my Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Louisiana State University School of Nursing in 2011. Over the next couple of years, I worked as an ICU nurse in New Orleans. I also worked part-time as a preop nurse and recovery room nurse at an endoscopy center.
I returned to Louisiana State University School of Nursing for my Doctor of Nursing Practice degree with specialization in Nurse Anesthesia and graduated in 2017. I then worked a full-time position as a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) in Houston, Texas until 2019.
In 2020, I transitioned into a full-time travel CRNA. I also wrote a guidebook, The Traveling CRNA: A Guide to Your Dream Job, to explain the career pathway and start-up basics for other interested CRNAs, nurses, and nursing students.

My journey in nursing began in December 2012 when I received my BSN from Louisiana State University. After graduating, I worked in the Medical and Trauma ICU for three years and was then accepted into LSU’s Nurse Anesthesia program.
In 2019, I successfully completed the program and received my Doctor of Nursing Practice in Anesthesia. After working a year and a half as a CRNA in New Orleans, I decided to follow in the footsteps of my friend Richon and become a full-time travel CRNA. Additionally, I am co-founder of Neaux La Made Inc, a non-profit organization that provides resources to minority anesthesia students. Planners have been an essential component of my everyday life.
As a student, mother, wife, and healthcare professional, using a planner allows me to keep up with responsibilities, making them easier to manage.
