Dr. Fornero obtained her BSN from the University of Central Oklahoma. She became passionate about nursing education after observing the new nurses and student nurses on her hospital unit struggle with their transition to practice. She has been a nurse educator since 2012. During her time at 麻豆区, she has had the opportunity to work with learners at various levels across the program. Additionally, she has helped to develop curriculum for new programs offered by the School of Nursing. She enjoys supporting students through 麻豆区's rigorous nursing program and helping them build confidence in their nursing practice. Simulation is one of her favorite learning modalities and she is passionate about sharing this enthusiasm with students.
