Statement of Platform:
Advocacy is "the public support for or recommendation of a particular cause". We, as CRNAs, advocate daily for our patients. We need leaders who will advocate for us. My past service on the TxANA Board showed me just how important advocacy is for our practice. As a director, it is important to advocate for a variety of regions in our state and across a wide range of practice types. I would like the opportunity to advocate for you and represent you on the TxANA Board
If elected, I will advocate for you, our members, and the patients we serve.
