Her career is dedicated to improving healthcare delivery models and mitigating financial risk for public and private healthcare facilities around the Midwest.

What is your best networking advice?

Always pay it forward! I wouldn’t be where I am today without the mentors who guided me. Each day learn something new and help someone learn! Never mistake an opportunity for a burden, you might just change the world!

Where do you draw inspiration from?

Working through a personal tragedy, I realized there is more to this world than we allow ourselves to see—that’s when I was inspired to change my life. After 12 months of physical and mental training, I crossed the finish line of the Ironman Triathlon completing 140.6 miles of extreme terrain—that’s when I knew I could achieve anything! Five years later, Warner Institute opened its state-of-the-art surgical facility with national recognition for Revision Rhinoplasty and the patented SWIFT Lift & Tuck. The mission of Warner Institute is to create an organization that stands for the field’s highest values including Surgical Excellence, Education & Mentorship, and Global Outreach. These values form the heart of Warner Institute— providing our patients with the best results and care available anywhere in the world. On a continued pursuit to provide our patients with exceptional care, I will complete a second Master’s of Science in Nursing in fall of 2023 when we will open a medical spa providing aesthetic facial and body services.
