About Kira Short, DNP, RN, NNP-BC, CCRN

After experiencing the impact of nurses on patients and families when she had her two children in the NICU, Kira left a career in healthcare administration to pursue a nursing degree. In addition to bedside care, she began collaborating with her team on quality improvement projects and education, quickly realizing her love for leadership and nursing. She continued her education with the Doctor of Nursing Practice, Neonatal Nurse Practitioner program at Arizona State University. She currently practices at a large level IV NICU in Texas and couldn’t be happier.
