Family Nurse Practitioner delivering evidence-based urgent care with strong diagnostics and procedure skills.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner with 7+ years of clinical nursing experience and current practice in a high-volume urgent care setting. I focus on rapid assessment, diagnosis, and management of acute illnesses and injuries across the lifespan.
As the sole provider at UofL Health Urgent Care Plus, I perform comprehensive evaluations for pediatric and adult patients, order and interpret labs, EKGs, and X-rays, and provide hands-on procedures including laceration repair, incision and drainage of abscesses, foreign body removal, splinting, and wound care. I also manage occupational health evaluations, work injury management, DOT physicals, and new-hire physical examinations using EPIC EMR.
Before that, I provided primary and urgent care at The Little Clinic, Kroger Health, and I built strong clinical foundations in maternal and neonatal care on the Mother/Baby Unit at Baptist Health Louisville. I bring a patient-centered approach grounded in evidence-based practice, preventive health, and clear patient education.
