Personal
Husband: Jim Ash – native to Jamestown.
Four Children: Ariel (Criminal Justice graduate of Jamestown College), Cody (Business Administration and Financial Planning and Wealth Management graduate of University of Jamestown); Emily (Current UJ Student Nurse – will graduate 2023); Aiden (Current UJ student in Business Admin and Financial Planning and Wealth Management).
Favorite Course to Teach
Physical Assessment: There is such a learning curve in this course for students. With no prior knowledge in physical assessment, it is amazing to watch their capstone project in this course – a complete head-to-toe physical on another student.
I have also enjoyed teaching in Adult/Child Medical Surgical Nursing I and II. I love seeing the “ah – ha” moments where the classroom teaching suddenly comes to life in the simulation lab or the clinical setting.
