Kristi was born and raised in Rapid City. She graduated with her RN from SDSU and worked as a nurse for 10 years before graduating from Walden University’s Family Nurse Practitioner program in 2018, and has been with RCMC ENT since. 

She enjoys the ENT specialty as it is a small area but can make a large impact on someone’s health. 

Kristi and her husband Justin are raising two daughters. When not working, Kristi enjoys camping, soccer, boating, and watching her daughters in the many activites they participate in.
