Deb graduated from nursing school in 2004 and came to work at UC Health as a Labor and Delivery nurse. There her passion was in caring for women and families, whether they were blissfully welcoming a healthy new baby or struggling through the hardship of having complications with their pregnancy.
Deb returned to school to pursue her Midwifery degree and graduated from University of Colorado School of Nursing in 2018. She has worked as a midwife for 2 years elsewhere before returning to UC Health to continue her career in Midwifery with the group of midwives that helped with the births of her own two children.
In addition to her passion for being present for families in transition, Deb also enjoys assisting with health maintenance, family planning and sexual health. When not midwifing, Deb loves reading, cross country skiing, hiking and spending time with her husband, adventurous two young boys, and dog.
The Traditional Pathway is a full-time, 24-month Bachelor of Science option, designed for students who may or may not have earned a degree in the past. This program includes classroom, clinical simulation, and clinical practice as part of the curriculum. The Traditional Pathway program will be primarily offered at the Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora. However, Traditional students may be required to attend some classes or labs at the CU South Denver location in Lone Tree. Students interested in the Traditional Pathway option apply through NursingCAS before the application deadline. Once admitted, students begin their program the following summer semester. The pace of the Traditional Pathway facilitates the integration of learning and acknowledges that students balance a number of responsibilities while completing their nursing education. However, please note that this is a full-time program of study; many students find it difficult to work more than 10-20 hours per week.
