A little about us
We unite great people with great opportunities across healthcare.
We asked the question, “How can we do this better?”
We take great pride in being a female and veteran owned agency with over 30 years experience. We wanted to know if we could do travel nurse staffing better. After breaking down what we knew, and building it back up with a fresh approach, we knew the answer was “Yes!” What started out as coffee at a Bistro, turned into this desire to make a difference for medical professionals, health care facilities and patients in need of the best care.

Total opposites of each other we have, Rizzo, a 4 year old Great Dane puppy and Dottie, a 7 year old Jack Russel/Terrier mix who runs the show.

Taking the four wheelers and side-by-sides out through the hills is our favorite!

On Saturdays you can find me watching the Hawkeyes play and on Sunday you can find me watching the Packers. My wife and I also love to travel, whether it be a quick weekend trip, or across (and out of) the country — Our favorite place so far has been Ireland, and the trip on our wish list is Greece.
The culture at CrossMed is top notch and being able to help nurses find the next step in their journey is so exciting and rewarding. Nurses spend all of their time taking care of others and it means a lot to me to have the opportunity to take care of them. I look forward to connecting with you!

We are on the road most weekends from March thru July and busy with high school sports in the fall. I love watching my kids do what they love and am sad to say we have less than 4 years until our last one graduates.
As you can tell, we don’t have much free time for about 9 months of the year but in our off months you can find us making amateur family videos, cooking every new recipe we find on Tik Tok, shopping, family movie nights, crafting, hosting our friends and family, watching ESPN and just making memories. Family is everything to me!
I have been in the travel industry for almost 7 years as both a compliance specialist and recruiter. I love what I do and love to help others begin their travel journey. I joined CrossMed for the amazing people and culture! It is both exciting and refreshing to play a part in a growing company that holds true their core values. I absolutely love the empowerment of women, the family-first mantra, and the ability to be who you are in an environment that is fun, supportive and whom all share the same professional goals!
