I’m so excited to announce that I was selected to be a 2016 AVEENO Blogger Ambassador! AVEENO is a brand that I’ve trusted for years. One of my favorite products is the Eczema Therapy Moisturizing Cream, which has tremendously alleviated the dry patches on my elbows.

As a nurse practitioner, one of my great interests is dermatology. I am fascinated by skincare. Taking…

Breakfast is probably my favorite meal of the day. Starting my morning off with something nutritious is so important to me. Workday mornings, I wake up at 5:30 AM, and it’s a scramble to get out the door in an hour. Feeding and walking the dog, applying makeup, getting dressed, packing lunch — it’s a process.

I’m really impressed with how quickly it dries. I’ve used other spray antiperspirants in the past,…

Vitamins and minerals are an essential part of our daily diet. Although I try to eat as healthy as possible, I’ve been taking a daily supplement for as long as I can remember. This multivitamin is my tried and true, however I was interested in incorporating a B complex vitamin into my regimen. There are numerous benefits of B vitamins. They support a healthy metabolism, promote healthy hair and nails, and now research shows a link to a reduced risk of stroke. They also give you a great boost of energy and focus, which is a much needed benefit when…
