Hi, I’m Anne

I’m a nurse anesthetist, traveler, and storyteller, exploring the world through photography, storytelling, and a love for slow, intentional living.

In 2020, I left my full-time W-2 job to build a life that prioritized time, creativity, and freedom. These days, I’m either in scrubs or somewhere with a carry-on and a camera, and I share my journey to remind healthcare pros: you don’t have to hit burnout to start living on your own terms.

  CRNA AT LARGE

Notes from the OR, the airport, and everywhere in between.

“It's a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you're ready.

I have this feeling now that actually, no one is ever ready to do anything.

There's almost no such thing as ready.

There's only now. "
