About:

Erin graduated from the University of Kansas with a journalism degree, writing healthcare stories before deciding to go back to school so she could make a true impact on patients’ lives. She earned her bachelor’s degree in nursing as part of the accelerated program at Research College of Nursing through Rockhurst University and obtained her master’s degree from there as well, specializing in family practice. 

Erin’s passion for wellness started when she was working as a critical care nurse in the hospital setting. For 10 years, she took care of diabetic patients who were getting limbs removed, hypertensive patients with kidney failure and other patients with chronic conditions who were getting care too little, too late. Erin wanted to help patients prevent those terrible disease processes and proactively take control of their health. After graduating with her master’s, Erin spent her first six years as a nurse practitioner in weight loss/management and preventative health and joins AC Wellness with extensive knowledge in those areas. She is a member of the Obesity Medicine Association and loves to educate patients on all things wellness, including nutrition and fitness. Her goal is to empower patients to live their best lives, to be healthy and to be happy. She likes to keep up with the latest research and to share evidence-based knowledge with her patients. 

Passions/Hobbies/Life

Outside of work, Erin enjoys being with her favorite people – her husband, Mike, son, Gage and daughter, Nora. When she’s not at her kids’ sporting events, she is cheering on the Royals, the Chiefs and the Jayhawks. Erin loves to travel, cook, bake, workout, walk her yellow lab, Charlie June, and enjoys sipping on spicy margaritas with friends, preferably on a patio. 

Fun fact

Born in New Hampshire, Erin learned to ski at her preschool. She lived in New York and moved to the Kansas City area in 5^th grade. She still loves the snow and skiing.
