    Owner/ Director of Nursing
    Welcome! I am proud to serve as both the Owner and Director of Nursing of Brightstar Care of West Des Moines. My mission is to create a safe, compassionate, and supportive environment where every client receives personalized care with dignity and respect. I believe that quality care begins with genuine relationships, strong leadership, and a commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of those we serve. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my husband, our three children and our dog. We love traveling and going to sporting events together. Getting to know my clients brings me so much joy and satisfaction and I can't wait to meet YOU!
