Biography

Linda’s interest in oncology first began while working in the radiation oncology department as a registered nurse while attending graduate school. She was introduced to a vulnerable patient population that needed individualized patient care, advocacy, and education, and she quickly realized oncology was her passion. She has worked as a registered nurse in a medical/surgical/step-down ICU unit, outpatient cardiology, and radiation oncology over the course of 7 years. She worked as a bone marrow transplant and cellular therapy nurse practitioner at Advocate Aurora Lutheran General Hospital prior to coming on board as a nurse practitioner at Illinois Cancer Specialists.

Linda is fluent in Vietnamese. She enjoys music, movies, and traveling. In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with family and friends.
