Nurse Educator | NP Coach | Preceptor | Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner

Hi there — I’m Miriam Tivzenda, the creator of NP Exam Prep, where nursing students and aspiring nurse practitioners come to study smarter, not harder.

I’ve walked the same path you’re on — from the long nights before boards to the joy (and relief!) of seeing that “PASS” on the screen. I successfully passed both the ANCC and AANP Family Nurse Practitioner board exams on my first attempt, and my mission is to help you do the same.

As a Family Nurse Practitioner currently practicing in primary care, I provide care for patients across the lifespan — from children to older adults. Beyond clinical practice, I serve as a preceptor for NP students, guiding the next generation of advanced practice nurses to think critically, lead confidently, and provide compassionate care.

My background as a nurse educator and coach fuels everything I create. Every study guide, course, and cheat sheet at NP Exam Prep is:

✅ Straight to the point — no fluff, just what you need to know to pass.

✅ Evidence-based and exam-focused — built around real NP board and NCLEX testing frameworks.

✅ Designed for busy nurses — practical, easy to digest, and focused on mastery.

Whether you’re preparing for your FNP boards or the NCLEX, my goal is simple: to help you pass confidently and step into your nursing career with pride.

If you’re ready to stop second-guessing yourself and start studying with clarity — you’re in the right place.
