As an individual, I pride myself on being hardworking, outgoing, approachable, and dependable. For me, success in my role as a recruiter is defined by the connections and relationships I build with those I place. I firmly believe that communication and transparency are essential keys to achieving successful placements. With nearly three years of experience in recruitment, specializing in long-term care, I possess a strong understanding of both the clients and the specialty as a whole. My priority is ensuring the happiness of the nurses I work with throughout their contracts.
With over a decade of experience working in healthcare, I understand the demands and fast-paced nature of the medical field — and I’m here to support you every step of the way. My goal is to make your travel experience smooth, rewarding, and even a little fun. I pride myself on strong communication, transparency, and building genuine relationships with the nurses I work with, many of whom become lifelong friends. Outside of work, I’m a passionate sports fan, lover of live music, and dog mom to the best pups: Charlie and Frankie!
Originally from Cleveland, Ohio, I graduated in 2016 with my Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Cleveland State University after a career change from tourism and marketing in Chicago, IL. I began traveling right after I passed the boards and got to experience almost every setting from sea to shining sea. From Ohio, to North Carolina, and then Washington, I loved my life as a travel PT! With friends new and old along the way, travel therapy let me hike, eat and explore all across the country. Whether it's seeing the sunrise in the mountains of Asheville, NC or trying new food next to Puget Sound, I am so grateful for all that travel PT allowed me to experience.
I have been recruiting travel nurses and techs in all specialties since 2000. I've been named Recruiter of the Year by Healthcare Traveler Magazine three times. By building lasting friendships with each of my travelers, I'm able to work toward the goal of keeping them working with me throughout their entire travel career. Before becoming a healthcare recruiter with TNAA, I served in the U.S. Marine Corps for 12 years in various duties around the world. I live in Florence, South Carolina, with my wife of 26 years, 2 children and a 2 dogs.
One of my travelers said, “Ron is like a brother and part of our family. Never have I picked up the phone and he did not respond. He always called to check on me even when he didn’t need anything. That makes me feel special and appreciated. That’s why I keep coming back and sticking with him. Ron is a very hands-on recruiter and makes sure you are content throughout your assignment.”
Hi - I'm Ashley! I am a retired Wedding Specialist and former consultant of the USGA who helped plan the 2013 & 2021 U.S. Senior Open here in Omaha, Nebraska! I decided to make a transition after I had my two girls to be able to spend more time with them. I LOVE this industry so far and can't wait to make life-long friendships and help therapists travel the WOLRD! I also like watching Michael Jordan re-run tapes, fishing, anything outdoors, listening to Taylor Swift and spending time with my family.
I’m a wife, a mom to a sweet little girl, a Jesus lover, a foodie, and a beach girl at heart. I’ve been with TNAA since August 2022, and every day I grow more passionate about what I do! My main focus is helping my travelers find assignments that not only help them grow in their careers but also fit into their personal lives. I make it a priority to get to know my travelers on a personal level—doing so helps me better serve you, and I truly value the relationships I build. I’m constantly inspired by the dedication and passion of the healthcare professionals I have the privilege of working with—they’re making a difference every single day. My goal is to make the process as easy as possible, treat you like family, and always follow through on my promises.
Hi, I am Angie Steed. I am married & have 3 kids and 2 dogs - a yorkie/papillon & aussie doodle and live in Little Rock AR. I have been a travel nurse recruiter since 2020. I work with all specialties and have placed nurses in almost every state in the country. I have worked through several markets of travel nursing and love the challenges & changes that comes with it. My favorite part of my job is helping a travel nurse or travel nurse pair/trio find assignments that they love. Whether they want to experience different parts of the country, get experience in Trauma & Teaching facilities, be near family or friends - I love helping them find the perfect fit and supporting them through their assignment. It is important to me that they feel supported, listened to & know that I will always be honest & transparent with them. The industry can be confusing & discouraging & I want them to have positivity with their recruiter & agency.
If you’re looking for a recruiter who will empower you to chase your career goals, I am your perfect fit. With a passion for personal development, I leverage my extensive experience to build powerful relationships built on support. I believe in arming my nurses with knowledge and guidance so they can approach their travel nursing career with confidence. But above all, I want my nurses to know that, when they’re far from home, that I'm with them. It might seem small, but being a reliable source my nurses can count on is important to me.
