healthcare, simulation, discourse
I am an educator and registered nurse exploring the intersection of feminist rhetoric, healthcare education, and simulation. My work aims to is amplify standardized patient educators as stewards of safety and focuses on how language functions within training environments to shape professional norms, collaboration, and experiences of safety in sexual and reproductive healthcare. Through scholarship, I advocate for language awareness as a core component of ethical and inclusive medical and health professions education.
