Q&A with Wendy
What is your favorite animated movie or cartoon?
Bugs Bunny and the Road Runner
What is your favorite children's book and why?
Where's My T.R.U.C.K.? by Karen Beaumont. This book is such a fun read and reminds me of days reading to my grandsons.
What was your favorite childhood toy?
My brother and I had Fisher Price Little People play sets that included towns and a castle. We used to play with these for hours.
Who is your greatest inspiration and why?
My greatest inspiration came from my DON at Flagler Hospital St. Augustine. It was her love of learning and passion for nursing that made her an amazing supervisor, provider, and colleague.
What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?
Bicycling, kayaking, fishing, and reading
What inspired you to work in pediatrics?
Working in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit caused me to love caring for children. Seeing the difference in how kids deal with illness and injury, as opposed to adults, made me want to become more involved in injury and illness prevention.
