I focus on providing quality and professional back, neck, and spine services to all of my patients. Working with Dr. James Andrews and our spine team, I take medical histories, examine patients, order and interpret laboratory tests and images, and diagnose patients in the clinical setting.

As a nurse practitioner, I actively help fulfill Heartland Orthopedic Specialists’ goal, which is to return our patients to active lifestyles in the shortest time possible.

I was an RN in a rural hospital before becoming a nurse practitioner. After obtaining my family nurse practitioner certification, I spent time working in urgent care before coming to Heartland Orthopedics.

My husband and I stay busy with our children’s activities. In my spare time, I am at the pool watching my oldest daughter swim, at the hockey rink cheering for my middle daughter’s hockey team, or on the softball field with my youngest daughter.
