Fond memories of the people who cared for her whenever she was sick as a child led Christine to pursue a career in which she could help others, as she had been helped.

A certified nursing assistant at age 16, Christine went on to get a degree in nursing, followed by an advanced degree to become a nurse practitioner.

Before becoming a nurse, Christine was a photojournalist. Talking with and photographing people in many different walks of life helped Christine see that everyone is a unique story worth hearing. She believes that listening to and learning from her patients allows her to help them find ways to be healthy, happy and independent for as long as possible.

When not busy on the job, Christine is busy with her husband and their two babies as they read, sing, travel, garden, hike, swim and learn about the world. She also enjoys cooking and writing.

Christine has a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from University of Minnesota and a Master of Science in Nursing from Grand Canyon University.
Credentials: MSN, Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C)
