She received her Bachelor of Nursing Science from Fairfield University in 2013 with a minor in Spanish language, and her Master of Nursing Science from Quinnipiac University in 2019. She was inducted into the Sigma Theta Tau honor society for academic excellence during the course of completing her graduate degree.
