Hello, I'm Nurse Kristen! I've been a School Nurse for 10 years and am very passionate about caring for students. I've been a Registered Nurse for 27 years and have worked in Pediatrics, NICU, Acute Pain Mgmt, Outpatient Pediatric Cardiology/Neurology Clinics, and Pediatric Urgent Care, but feel that School Nursing is my true calling. I am very excited to begin my first year at Harrison Intermediate!

I grew up in Las Cruces, NM, graduated with my BSN from UT El Paso, and have been married for 20 years to my beloved husband, Joe, who is retired from the US Army.  We have 5 wonderful children: Joseph (19), Scott (17), Jason (15), Lainey (13), & Ryan (11).  My favorite hobbies are reading, baking, & gardening.
