My parents were very giving. They taught us to always help other people. Maybe that's what got me into nursing.

I'm so touched. I keep saying that it's easy to do a good job because I love it.

I'm so surprised. I'm both overwhelmed and proud to represent Danbury.

I enjoy my work. It's easy to do a good job when you love what you're doing. I like seeing kids make it and graduate. It makes me very proud.

There's a big misconception about what school nurses do. You have to handle everything from first aid injuries to chronic or acute mental health problems. In addition to the students, we're also responsible for 250 staff.

After my parents died, people were always asking me, 'Where are the dancers? I had no idea they danced so much they were nicknamed 'the dancers.' In my family we always danced. We always went where music was involved.
