Tasha BSN RN Critical Care
"Dani was so willing to share her knowledge with me, you could just tell how passionate she was about her work. One thing that was different about Dani is she challenged me. She truly cared about my learning and what I was getting out of the experience. She developed a teaching plan that was individualized for me and encouraged me to share my own voice/an opinion about what I wanted to get out of it. I think this is what made the most significant impact on my experience. She instilled in me motivation, dedication, passion, and a strong worth ethic. My experiences with Dani during my capstone in the Surgical Intensive Care Unit really ignited my own passion for critical care. I knew that’s the field I wanted to go in to and Dani made me so excited for my own nursing journey to being. I feel so lucky to have met and learned from Dani!"
Lexie BSN RN DNP-S
"Working in an intensive care unit is quite stressful. That is why it’s so important to find mentors in this area that are willing to teach and guide you through this process. Dani, could not have been a more perfect mentor for me throughout my time in the SICU. She is patient, kind, and honest. She tells you your strengths and weaknesses and how you can build from those. Dani has shaped me into the nurse I am today and I am so thankful that God led me to her. She is so knowledgeable and wants nothing but the best for your future!"
Lex BSN RN Critical Care
“Having Dani as my preceptor for my senior practicum in the ICU has meant all the difference in my transition to being a new grad RN. I was amazed by her medical knowledge and her passion for teaching is unmatched! Many of my current coworkers were surprised that I was a new graduate nurse due to my knowledge of the ICU and I attribute most of that knowledge to Dani’s willingness to teach me. You will never meet a more determined, smart, and passionate critical care nurse!”
