Reflecting on my USF journey, I am reminded of the foundational values that have guided my career in nursing—from public health to perioperative care, and now as an educator. The commitment to holistic care, ethical leadership, and adaptability has shaped my professional identity. Returning as a “Double Don” is both a privilege and a responsibility, and I look forward to contributing to the USF SONHP community’s legacy of excellence.
