Kristen’s nearly 15-year nursing background is multifarious, as it spans from the back of a helicopter to the back of a classroom. Born and raised in intensive care units and emergency departments, Kristen shaped her early experience to become a flight nurse. After serving several years in air medical, she directed her sights towards education, becoming a clinical content/item writer and editor and academic clinician. She currently serves as nursing faculty at Duke University Health System.
