Elizabeth earned her DNP in Adult-Gerontology Acute Care from the University of Utah and her Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner certification at the University of Cincinnati. She is an Associate Professor at Westminster University, teaching in graduate programs.

She began her nursing career at the Veterans Affairs and remains passionate about veteran health. In her prior life, Elizabeth was an educator and food activist/researcher, examining the impact of food policy and advertising regulations on children’s health. As a Nurse Practitioner, she specializes in obesity medicine, guiding clients toward realistic, sustainable solutions, and lifestyle medicine. She has a particular interest on the impact of food and lifestyle on mental well-being.

Elizabeth created Imposter Syndrome Podcast to shine a light on the realities of working as a Nurse Practitioner (mainly because she usually feels like she has no idea what she is doing herself). Through candid conversations with real NPs, and down to earth monologues exploring salient topics that impact all of us, the podcast tackles the questions she wishes she’d asked as a student, offering listeners the mentorship they may not have had when starting their careers.

In addition to her podcast, Elizabeth offers career coaching for those beginning their careers or feeling stuck mid-career. Drawing on over a decade of experience as an educator and mentor, and her passion for helping others reach their potential.
