Christy earned her Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and a post-graduate certificate in Adult-Gerontology Primary Care from Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where she embraced the university’s guiding motto to “Be the Difference.” Her clinical training is complemented by a Master of Business Administration from Saint Leo University and a Bachelor of Science in Health Services Administration from Santa Fe College.

Every day in practice, Christy strives to be the difference in her patients’ healthcare journeys—empowering them to resolve complex conditions, optimize longevity, and achieve a vibrant quality of life they can truly feel.
