Linda’s nursing journey began over 15 years ago when she secured her first RN position at Scottsdale Shea, now known as Honor Health, on a urology/oncology Medical/Surgical unit. After gaining two years of invaluable experience, she transitioned to the orthopedic floor. During her time there, Linda was excited to be chosen from numerous candidates for specialized cross-training in couplet care, which became asignificant highlight of her early career.

After five years of working night shifts, she made the switch from inpatient nursing to the dynamic field of outpatient care. This experience led her through internal medicine, family practice, and an engaging subspecialty clinic, where she collaborated with specialists in dermatology, neurology, nephrology, endocrinology, rheumatology, and infectious disease. Most recently, Linda dedicated over two years to her role as a clinical nurse in endocrinology, a position that challenged and motivated her daily.

Eager to expand her knowledge, Linda pursued her next adventure at the University of Phoenix to become a nurse practitioner, obtaining her license in May 2026. She was inspired to follow this career path by her mother, who was also a nurse. Linda has always had a passion for caring for others and truly believes that nursing is her calling.
