In 2000, I relocated from Ottawa, Canada, to Chapel Hill, NC, to begin my career. Dual citizen. Dedicated career of professional and philanthropic activities in NC. Carolina graduate, with a Master of Science in Nursing and a Family Nurse Practitioner from UNC Chapel Hill. I was the first mid-level provider, NP, to work in the Level 1 Trauma Emergency Department. Before that, I was the Recruiter for UNC Hospitals, recruiting nurses from all over North America, as well as the Medical Consultant for Durham Academy.

My entrepreneurial drive and pursuit of the "American Dream" led me to establish two businesses. In 2022, I merged my competitive swim club into the North Carolina Aquatic Club. My non-profit, Carolina Swims Foundation, sponsors swim lessons for underserved/foster care children to prevent drownings. Public speaker for cancer awareness, water safety initiatives, and a published author of children's picture books: "Pepperoni Cookies, Fearful Fergus Learns to Try" and "Sea Star Cookies, Fearful Fergus Learns Water Safety."  Proud parents of three sons (swimmer, lacrosse player, and musician). Schools - East Chapel Hill HS, Guy Phillips MS, Rashkis, and the IMG Academy in Florida. I volunteer as the PTSA President for East.
