But there are still plenty of things I can do, and I'm finding different ways to do the things I love. Which brings me to health and wellness.   I’ve been a Registered Nurse since 1975 and worked in healthcare for over 4 decades. My career focus has been all about health and wellness. My clinical specialty areas are orthopaedics, pain management, and rehab. I’ve worked in clinical nursing care, healthcare administration, academic research, and university teaching. Before I was diagnosed with MS, I provided nursing care for hospitalized patients with advanced MS. I saw the world of MS from the “outside looking in”, taking care of these patients and families as they faced many challenges and issues. Since my MS diagnosis, I see the world of MS from the “inside looking out,” and that perspective has brought both challenges and insights. As a health & wellness/life & career coach, my specialty is working with MS patients and others who have an autoimmune disease or other chronic illness. I will help you clarify the problems and issues that impact you most — and help you explore approaches and solutions that best fit your needs. You will become the champion of your own journey, inspired to take on challenges that push you outside of your comfort zone and help you grow. Whether it's following a new exercise routine, taking on a new project at work or home, trying a new diet, pursuing a new hobby, or other new adventures, this process will lead to transformational changes in your life. Together, we will develop a goal-focused plan to maximize your health, wellness, and greatly enhance your quality of life. Let’s take this journey together.
