Hello!

My areas of expertise include Wound Care, Fall Prevention, and Dementia Care.

To date, I have successfully processed over 50 Long Term Care cases, for both Plaintiff and Defense. These cases are from lawyers throughout the United States.

In addition to my SNF experience, I have extensive clinical research nursing experience at organizations including Mayo Clinic, Cedars Sinai, and UCLA. My clinical research experience includes Reproductive Endocrinology, Oncology, Women’s Health, and Cardiology.
