Chantel is a Family Nurse Practitioner accredited by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners. She earned both her Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a Master of Science in Nursing from Northern Kentucky University and brings 10 years of experience in health care. Her career began as a Certified Nursing Assistant in a medical-surgical unit before transitioning to the emergency department, where she worked as both a Clinical Care Technician and an Emergency Department Nurse. These formative years sparked her deep love for emergency medicine and instilled in her a profound commitment to caring for individuals and families during their most vulnerable and critical moments. These fast-paced, high-stakes experiences naturally shaped her compassionate, comprehensive, and calm approach to patient care. This background allows her to bring an exceptional depth of empathy and clinical intuition to every patient interaction. Chantel deeply values building trusting relationships with her patients, providing effective health education, and supporting lasting improvements in their overall quality of life. She firmly believes that combining conventional and holistic approaches when appropriate can empower patients to achieve the best possible health outcomes. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with family, friends & her two dogs, listening to music, camping, fishing, and watching football (WhoDey!).
