Research Interests
Perimenopausal depression
Overview
With over a decade of professional experience in healthcare, I became a Family Nurse Practitioner in 1998, specializing in women’s health and gynecology. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) in 2023, focusing my capstone project on enhancing screening practices for depression among perimenopausal women. I am a full-time faculty member at Northeastern University, contributing to future healthcare providers’ academic and professional growth, while maintaining an active clinical practice in York, Maine. These dual roles allow me to integrate education, research, and patient care, which are central to my professional mission.
