Faculty
Jessica Van Leuven, BSN RN
Jessica is currently an Assistant Nurse Manager working in a complex high risk labor and delivery department in Roseville, Ca. She has a broad background that includes almost 20 years of nursing practice at the bedside.
Her experience is gathered from Cardiac ICU, Home Health and Hospice, Forensic Psychiatry, Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Mother Baby, and most recently Labor and Delivery in the critical care setting.
Jessica graduated from Brigham Young University with her Bachelors degree in Nursing. She is currently attending University of San Francisco in the graduate program for Clinical Nurse Leadership. Jessica is passionate about education that inspires all those who partake to be empowered to become better clinicians, promoters of the nursing profession, and influential members of our community.
Jessica has taught for over twenty years in many different settings and has found this to be one of her passions along with writing. Jessica is a published author and the founder of the Facebook group “Humans of Healthcare”. In her down time Jessica enjoys traveling, studying philosophy, learning languages, running, skiing, and waterskiing, but most of all spending quality time with her cherished family and friends.
Elizabeth Stefani BSN RN
Liza has been working in the acute care setting since 2001 and has been actively involved in health education since 1996 when she worked for the California Deparment of Health as a Tobacco Education Liaison. Liza graduated nursing school in 2006 and went on to get her BSN from Samuel Merritt University in Oakland, Ca.
In her career as a nurse Liza has worked in Hospice, Oncology, Telemetry and most recently as a Labor and Delivery nurse at one of the largest L&D units in California.
Her passion for teaching comes from watching two close family members die of medical mistakes. Because of these experiences Liza strongly believes that a nurse with an understanding of pathophysiology can save lives and anytime a nurse stops asking ‘why’, is when he or she stops being the nurse Liza wants to care for her family.

PORTS OF CALL
Los Angeles, California - Los Angeles is a relatively young city, barely over a century old. This 467-square-mile desert basin is not only the center of the world's film industry; it also plays a major role in television, fashion, music and art. No wonder some of the world's most famous individuals choose L.A. as their home. The sunsets over the Pacific are nothing less than spectacular, and there are 72 miles of incredible oceanfront beaches from which to enjoy them.
At Sea - Cruising - Cruising
Cabo San Lucas, Mexico - This sleepy fishing village turned celebrity vacation haven is known for its snorkeling, coral reefs galore, and a nightlife that rivals the biggest party destinations in the world. Located at the southern end of California’s Baja Peninsula, Cabo San Lucas is growing in popularity, attracting everyone from Hollywood stars to nature lovers with its tropical ease and natural beauty. Fishing enthusiasts are encouraged to bring their catch of the day to local restaurants, who will grill your fish onsite for you. On a Panama Canal cruise, a stop in Cabo San Lucas isn’t complete without a margarita or a wildly-popular local tequila tasting.
While on your Cabo cruise, don’t miss iconic sites like El Arco de Cabo San Lucas, where tourists flock to catch the sunset glittering off the massive arch-shaped rock formation. Snorkel and see the coral reefs along the Sea of Cortez, or do nothing but sunbathe at Lover’s Beach. When you need a slower day away from the incredible beaches and nightlife of Cabo San Lucas, head north for a day trip to the Todos Santos for art galleries, sleepy cafes, and a relaxed vibe.
Mazatlan, Mexico - If you're ready to experience some of the finest sailing and sport fishing available, then you're ready for Mazatlan. This is an exquisite seaside resort by anyone's standards. Of course, you don't have to partake in world-class water sports to enjoy Mazatlan. You can relax on one of its soft-sand beaches caressed by trade winds that are even softer. Or shop for silver jewelry and Mexican crafts in the shops of "The Golden Zone", where you can also celebrate your purchases at one of the area's lively cantinas.
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Puerto Vallarta has all the amenities of a classic beach resort ‐ surf, sand and sun‐ but it also offers so much more. Perfect for honeymooners, families and seniors alike, Puerto Vallarta offers sport fishing, golfing,
horseback riding, hiking and whale watching. Boasting mountains, jungles, beaches, rivers, and waterfalls, this port is completely different from any other destination in Mexico. Puerto Vallarta is a modern destination that remains
loyal to its traditional Mexican roots. And that's just scratching the surface.
