Hello! My name is Reo (she/her) and I am the Graduate Writing Coach and a second year PMHNP student in the SON here at OHSU. I have been a nurse since 2017 and practiced in predominantly medical-surgical settings, as well as school nursing. I have a Ph.D. from the SON studying the impact of nature exposure (indoors and outdoors) on immune health and chronic pain. I have a background in arts education, and experience teaching undergraduate nursing.

As a student throughout nursing school and beyond, I utilized all of the available resources and accommodations to support my learning, NCLEX studying, and academic writing. I believe that in healthcare, we are always learning within our professions, from each other, from our patients, and the advancement of science. I am passionate about academic support, and I am eager to share what tools I've gleaned with others! 

Outside of academics, I love spending time in nature with my husband and our toddler, experimenting with learning the drums, getting back into dance and theater, and exploring science museums wherever we can travel.
