My career in perioperative nursing was born in 1996 as I was accepted into an ORNAC approved perioperative course offered by the former Saskatchewan Institute of Applied Science and Technology (SIAST).  Following this, I worked as a general duty staff nurse in the operating room while working on my post-diploma Baccalaureate of Science in Nursing in 2005 (BScN).  I obtained my CPN(C) in 2009 followed by a Master in Nursing: Leadership and Education from the University of Saskatchewan in 2017. In addition to general duty perioperative nursing, I held the clinical educator and perioperative instructor position at the Brandon Regional Health Center for over 10 years. In 2017, I joined the St. Boniface Hospital in Winnipeg, Manitoba as the OR Team Manager, which I currently fulfill. I have been an ORNAC member for many years and currently hold the roles of the Manitoba Operating Room Nurses Association (MORNA) president as well as serve on the ORNAC board as the Manitoba Director.  I am very proud of my relationship and membership with ORNAC and look forward to serving our ORNAC members within this dynamic and amazing organization.
