Jessica is a Family Nurse Practitioner that graduated from Simmons University in 2019. Upon finalization of her degree, she was a full-time Nurse Practitioner in addiction medicine taking care of patients with a wide range of substance use disorders. Prior to getting her Nurse Practitioner degree, Jessica spent most of her 9 year nursing career in critical care. Working in critical care let Jessica work with a wide range of chronic health diseases. This work led her into finding her niche of wanting to work with patients before their problems become critical.

In her personal life, Jessica had her own health issues that were due to a gluten sensitivity and recently found out her child had an overgrowth in her gut which led her to want to find a solution rather than symptom management. Jessica is motivated to treat the whole person, not simply a symptom. Her goal is to create a positive and knowledgeable atmosphere between her and her patients. Through this personalization she is able to listen and truly understand them and their illnesses. These ideals are what prompted Jessica to join Dr. Amy Brenner and her team!

When Jessica isn’t working, you can find her spending time with her husband, Brandon and two daughters, Harley and Halle. As a family, they love to spend time fishing, hiking, and anything outside. In her own time, Jessica enjoys planting and gardening a variety of flowers, herbs, fruits, and vegetables. She also loves to read and listen to podcasts any chance she gets!
