I am a proud 1988 graduate of Canadian High School. I attended OSU and then transferred to WTAMU nursing school to complete my BS degree in nursing.
I began my nursing career at Scott and White Memorial Hospital in Temple, Texas, completing the critical care internship program then working full time in the Pediatric ICU. I also floated to the MICU, SICU, CCU and ER. I then moved to Amarillo and worked at Northwest Texas Hospital as a STAT nurse before coming back to my roots to raise my family in Canadian, Texas. I have been the school nurse here since 2001.
I am married to a CHS alum, Michael Kerrigan. I have two children, Sawyer and Caroline.
