Trista Bachand, MS, RN

This is my 4th year at DMS. I have enjoyed getting to know students and their families and it has been fun being able to watch so many of them grow up right before my eyes. I love caring for your children and educating them on healthy choices and options.

I have been a nurse for 15 years. I started my career in Chicago on a cardiac care unit as a floor nurse and as an assistant manager. When we moved to Fort Worth I worked in clinical research until I came to work here at DMS.

I have a wonderful husband and two wonderful daughters, who keep me on my toes when I'm not at work. I love warm weather, being outside, and anything that has to do with the beach.

I look forward to having a safe and healthy school year.
