I'm a gypsy soul who's settled and bought a house. I'm a passionate
pediatric nurse who recently left the bedside for a position where I
mentor & inspire new grad RNs to go above and beyond their job
description to make the difference in a patient's day and life. I was
born in Bucharest, Romania, and lived there until I was 4 years old.
Now, I live among the few remaining citrus groves of Redlands, CA.

I got my first puppy, Freckles, a little over a year ago and subsequently fell madly in love with the canine race. I run a mentoring/tutoring program at our local church specifically for pregnant/parenting adolescent girls living in a local foster home. I love helping plan/organize youth/young adult functions at church: mid-week Bible studies, Friday night home vespers, camping trips, etc. Life would be great if there were a few extra hours in the day to read more, and a few more paid vacation days in the year to travel more.

Eph 6: 7 Work with enthusiasm,
as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people.

If
you planted hope today in any hopeless heart; if someone's burden was
lighter because you did your part; if you caused a laugh that chased
some tears away; if tonight your name is named when someone kneels to
pray; then your day has been well spent." Anonymous
