Appointment Information
Mankato, MN
Hospital and Clinic
1025 Marsh St., Mankato, MN 56001Provider's Bio
As a nurse practitioner, I am committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based and patient-centered care that promote health, prevents disease and improves quality of life with chronic gastrointestinal/hepatology conditions. I am committed to lifelong learning to maintain clinical experience. I strive to educate and empower patients through shared decision-making, helping them better understand the condition, treatment options and preventive strategies so they can actively participate in management of their health.
Outside of my professional life, I enjoy spending time with my family, whether we are caring for our animals, working around the farm, or just being together. It allows me to stay grounded and reminds me of the importance of balance and connection to the community of which I reside.
