To whom It may concern, It gives me great pleasure to recommend Christine

Couperus-Mashewske. I have known Christine for over 20 years. Initially, in the role
of a parent bringing her children to the office where I worked as a Pediatric Nurse
Practitioner. The second level of our connection is more personal as some of our
children were of a similar age and attended the same school. Most recently I have
had the pleasure of precepting Christine in pediatrics as she completes her studies
in the Nurse Practitioner program. Through all of these connections I have found
Christine to be hard working and dedicated.
As a student she has a strong thirst for knowledge because she values learning but
also to ensure she is well prepared to fill her health care role. She is also very
cognizant of the social and developmental challenges that people face as they
make health care decisions. She is a great asset to any health care team.
Sincerely,
Rita Crowley, P.N.P.
