Twyla’s passion for health care began at a young age – always wanting to become a nurse. She began work in an assisted living facility at the age of 12, and began working as a Care Aide at 14. After Graduating as Valedictorian Twyla pursued her interest in Nursing and enrolled in the fast-track program for her RN training at the University of Lethbridge to complete her degree in three and a half years. Twyla not only graduated with Honors with Great Distinction, but she also received a gold medal for the Highest Academic Achievement for the entire Health Sciences Faculty in 2013 graduating with her Registered Nursing, Bachelor of Nursing. With a decade of hands-on experience as a nurse she recognized health and wellbeing cannot be achieved single-handedly. It is a combination of the ENTIRE being - mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, and environmental that must work together to achieve overall health and wellness. This led Twyla to completing Baccalaureate Board-Certified Holistic Nursing certification, extensive personal and professional development training, and specializing in health care worker education, with a specific focus and passion for Health Care Professional burnout and compassion fatigue.​
