She brings a wealth of experience and a passion for providing compassionate care to patients in need. Kara's journey in the medical field began when she had a complicated childbirth in October 2002, and the person that helped her the most was her nurse. Her nurse was so compassionate and caring. At that moment, Kara knew she wanted to return to nursing school. 

She Graduated from St. Francis Medical Center College of Nursing in May 2006, with her BSN while pregnant with her second child. A couple years later, her father fell ill with cancer, and her mother soon followed. As she gravitated around medical society to find her parents the best possible care, she soon realized that the care was lacking for the aging population. Kara then decided to go back to school to obtain her master's in nursing in 2012 from St. Francis Medical Center College of Nursing. In 2018, she received her Certificate in Gerontology from St. Francis Medical Center College of Nursing. This career choice offers Kara personal and professional fulfillment by providing crucial healthcare services and improving the quality of life for the aging population. She has been a Registered Nurse for 18 years, and a Nurse Practitioner for 12 years. She has worked with women, children, newborns, adults, and the elderly. She has experience in many settings including clinics, nursing homes, hospitals, homecare, behavioral health, palliative care and hospice.

Dedicated to making a positive impact on those having a taxing effort to leave the home, Kara has chosen to focus her expertise on in-home Primary Care services. Now with Healing Hands Mobile Physician Group, she strives to foster a culture of empathy and dignity, ensuring that patients and their families receive the highest quality of care. With her comprehensive medical background, commitment to compassionate care, Kara is well-equipped to ensure comfort and support for patients and their loved ones.

 Kara is most passionate about being a mom, which is her favorite thing in the whole world! She enjoys spending time with older adults, connecting with them, and hearing their stories. Kara thrives when meeting people, finding out what is important or what really matters to them, and then helping them achieve their goals through their healthcare. Kara is great at advocating for her patients and empowering them to want the best quality of life.
