About

Robin’s devotion to pediatric nursing stems from her experience working as a pediatric nurse and nurse practitioner since 2005.  Her expertise lies in a multitude of medical conditions including: liver, kidney, intestinal transplants, short bowel syndrome, liver and kidney diseases and disorders, urology, orthopedic, pediatric surgery, ENT, and plastic surgery. Her clinical experience includes acute and primary settings with her focus primarily in pediatrics. Additional areas of interest and clinical expertise include transition of care and self-agency for children, adolescents, and young adults with chronic medical conditions. Robin is actively involved in inter-professional initiatives at the college, and university level. Current clinical practice includes involvement in student volunteer coordination and oversight at a Covid-19 mass vaccination site

Robin has been at the College of Nursing since 2014 and has been involved in teaching in a variety of pre-licensure nursing, graduate, and doctoral courses. Her primary teaching focus is pediatric nursing.

Outside of Robin’s nursing career, she enjoys spending time with her family: Charlotte (daughter), Oliver (son), Chad (husband) Payton (dog).
