Hi Davenport,
I’m an RN as well as a published photographer and poet. I’m a part-time student in the Yale School of Nursing and a full time Clinical Research Nurse for the Yale School of Medicine where I work on an inpatient psychiatric research unit - ask me about our psychedelics trials! I obtained my first masters degree from the University of Oxford, completed my RN training in the Bay Area at UCSF, and was a Fulbright fellow to New Zealand. I’ve worked in psychiatry, postpartum/lactation nursing, community health nursing, school nursing and neonatal intensive care research. I lived in the UK for a few years and California for almost a decade, but now call New England home (mortgage and all).
I was a first-generation college student and am passionate about mental health and helping students find spaces of belonging. I enjoy daily nature walks, making whimsical floral arrangements, antiquing and paying attention to the natural world.
Let’s go for a walk, grab lunch, talk through personal issues, review essays or mull over postgraduate plans. I’m also very excited about the pottery wheel, someone please show me how to use it!
