Prior to pursuing nursing, Katie attended the University of Maryland, College Park and graduated in 2008 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology with a minor in Spanish. Following graduation, Katie worked with adults with intellectual disabilities for several years. In 2013, she decided to pursue a career in nursing as working in healthcare was always a passion of hers. Katie graduated from Howard Community College with her Associate Degree in Nursing in 2015. She then received her Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing from the University of Maryland School of Nursing in December 2016. Upon graduating from nursing school, she began her nursing career in the Medical Intensive Care Unit at the University of Maryland Medical Center. While Katie loved working in the ICU and valued the knowledge she gained while providing care to critically ill patients, she yearned for a more influential role in her patients’ care.
Therefore, in 2019, Katie returned to school to obtain her graduate degree as a family nurse practitioner. She graduated with honors from Georgetown University with her Master of Science degree in Nursing in May 2022. After receiving her Master’s degree, she left the ICU after 6 years and began her career as a nurse practitioner at a private cardiology practice in Rockville MD. In this setting, she effectively diagnosed and managed patients with various cardiac diagnoses. She independently treated patients and provided general cardiology care and episodic care while also taking on a role as an electrophysiology nurse practitioner allowing her to expand her knowledge in treating patients with arrythmias and cardiac devices. Upon leaving cardiology, she began her career at Chronic Pain Treatment Center in September 2023. Katie has a passion for providing personalized care and enjoys establishing meaningful relationships with her patients.
Outside of work, Katie loves to spend time with her husband and their three young kids. They are excited to welcome another child into their family in January 2024. They love to be active and spend time outdoors together.
