She received her ADN from St. Catherine University, BSN from Bethel University, and MSN from Indiana Wesleyan University. She worked as a bedside nurse at the University of Minnesota Medical Center for 13 years. Her specific areas of expertise include adult medical-surgical and orthopedic nursing and pediatric cardiac and medical-surgical nursing. Her expertise in education is interprofessional education and experiential learning through clinical and simulation nursing.

Professor Seeling teaches Serving Through Interprofessional Collaboration and Pathophysiology courses. She teaches clinical for the Foundations, Advanced, Pediatric, and Mental Health courses. She has led students on transcultural nursing trips to Ecuador and Brazil.

Professor Seeling says, “I hope that my nursing students would always see every patient they encounter as a blessing to care for and as valued, important, and loved because they are God’s beloved and carry His image. Because of that, they would care for their patients with a love, mercy, compassion, and kindness that sets them apart from their peers and makes their patients feel valued, important, and loved as they experience the reflection of God’s love through our nursing students and alums.”

Her hobbies include spending time with her husband and children, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, camping, swimming, reading, growing flowers, and baking.
