Deborah joined the Alsana family in 2021 and currently serves as a staff nurse in the Birmingham, Alabama region. She finds joy in celebrating the unique qualities in each person, while acknowledging the common threads that bind us all together. Deborah feels honored to work in residential care where she can assist clients in the medical aspects of recovery, while getting to know each person as an individual. Her greatest aspiration is to make each client, family member, and colleague feel respected and seen. 

Deborah received her BSN in nursing from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. She has previous experience in hospital medical-surgical nursing and cardiac step-down. Prior to that, she worked as a credit policy analyst in the finance industry, but definitely is happier working with humans than numbers. Deborah also enjoys spending time with her wife, fur babies, and large extended family.
