My name is Stephanie Framel. I am currently pursuing my BSN through Adams State University and hope to specialize in Pediatric Oncology upon my graduation and licensure in the Spring of 2026. I am a Colorado native who enjoys spending my limited free time outside in nature, playing sports, or hanging out with my friends.

My name is Amber Kendrick, and I am a second-year student in the Trinidad State College ADN Nursing Program. I’ve known since I was a young child that I wanted to be a nurse and have spent the last seven years working as an LPN in a variety of settings. After having my son, who was born at 25 weeks’ gestation with several complex medical issues, I decided to return to school and bridge to RN so that I can one day become a NICU nurse and be the support to families that I once needed. In my free time, I love to travel with my children.

Hi! My name is Harlee; I'm a senior in the Traditional BSN Program at Regis! As of right now, I find both peds and critical care very interesting, so maybe the PICU is in my future! My favorite nursing topics include pharmacology and the integration of psychology and sociology into our everyday practice as bedside nurses. I have volunteered at hospitals since I was 14, and I have known that nursing is where I'm meant to be every since! Outside of class I enjoy outdoor activities like hiking and pickleball, but I also like spending time indoors snuggled up with my dog and a psychological thriller.

My name is Tori Bealer and I am a senior in the traditional BSN program at AdventHealth University. I love the critical thinking that comes with nursing and hope to be in the ICU after graduation. When I am not studying, I am skiing, golfing, or taking my big doberman, Judge, on a walk.

My name is Carissa, and I am currently a Junior at Regis Univesity pursuing my BSN with a minor in Healthcare Administration. I currently work in Pediatrics and Mom-Baby as a Nurse extern, and upon Graduation, I hope to work as a Labor and Delivery nurse and then go back to school to be a nurse midwife. I enjoy being outdoors in the sunshine, skiing, traveling, and hanging out with friends and family in my spare time. I also love to cook. I am excited to be a part of the team!

Hello, my name is Claire, and I am a Senior at Regis University pursuing my BSN with a minor in Healthcare Administration. I work as a CNA at Children's in the PICU and hope to work in Pediatrics post-graduation. I love the outdoors, country music, cooking, sports, the Broncos, and hanging out with family.

My name is Leah; I’m really excited to be a part of this team. I have background experience with labor unions and am very passionate about it. I have fought workplaces for better contracts for employees in the past. I strive to use my expertise by bringing union awareness to nursing-related work fields. Further, it highlights legislation while maintaining the highest integrity regarding nursing careers. Aside from nursing, I enjoy collecting and listening to records. I also enjoy painting and crafting. Most importantly, I am hanging out with my dog, Stanley, whom I love dearly.

Please get in touch with us if you are interested in filling this role.

Hi everyone, I’m Oana.
I am currently pursuing a BSN through Regis University, graduating in December 2026. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Foreign Affairs and European Studies and a master’s in International Relations with a focus on African Studies. Originally from Romania, I moved to Madrid, Spain, for my master’s and have lived in the U.S. for the past 10 years. Throughout my career, I have worked in various states and industries, including governmental institutions, NGOs, and multinational corporations. Fun fact about me: I am trilingual. For the past eight years, I have owned a small business—a medical spa in Loveland, CO.

Lori Rae has been at Trinidad State since 2012.  She serves as the director of the nursing program.
