I am here for Networking

About Me

I've been in healthcare (Emergency and Trauma Services R.N) for 25 years, and firmly believe that "laughter is the best medicine"......Nonsmoker/Nondrinker, and hoping clean comedy becomes my new "vice".Wish me luck!........I am an accomplished writer, and have been published in numerous healthcare journals, including Nursing Spectrum, Nurse Advance, and the Journal of Emergency Medical Services.Be forewarned. I joined Weight Watchers last weekend. If nothing else, the comedy routines should become more interesting. Wish me luck ("luck" is zero calories, right????)

My Interests

Standup comedy of course! I am a gym rat of sorts (thank you, Golds Gym!) and in my spare time (what little time there is), I am trying to learn how to play the guitar (self taught). After several months, I can play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star......impressed, huh?
