I'm a registered nurse with eight years of clinical experience, including ICU, inpatient rehabilitation, and school nursing. I write healthcare and medical content that is accurate, practical, and clear — the kind of writing that actually makes sense to the person reading it. A big part of nursing is communication. Explaining a diagnosis to a worried parent, coordinating care across a team, translating what a physician said into something a patient can act on. That instinct carries directly into how I write. I close the gap between clinical language and plain language without losing what actually matters. I write blog posts, patient education content, clinical explainers, and long form articles. I also write human interest and personal essays, including resident features for a local community magazine and a Substack called Notes on Being Human. My background is specific enough to be credible and broad enough to be useful across a range of healthcare topics. Recent clients have described my work as exceeding expectations and praised my communication and attention to detail.
