Shay Smith DNP

Shay Smith, author, speaker, and nurse practitioner, has always loved reading and books. As a child, she loved field trips to the library, going to bookstores, and participating in the book fair. Inspired by her experience in the nursing field and the finest sorority, Shay loves to write books that will inspire and motivate readers to become the best version of themselves. ​ When she is not writing new stories, she is coaching and helping other aspiring authors publish and brand their books through her publishing agency, Muriel's House, in memory of her favorite auntie who also loved books. She is a Christ-follower and wife, enjoys traveling, reading, and serving the community with her sorority and husband. A Miami native, Shay earned a DNP from the University of Miami, MSN from Emory University, and a BSN from Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University. You can follow her on Instagram: DrShaySmith.
