Heather joined Community Health Network in June 2023. Her entire nursing career, beginning in 2003, has been dedicated to oncology, hematology, bone marrow transplant and precision genomics. She received an associate's degree in nursing from University of Indianapolis and a bachelor's degree from Western Governers University. She spent 19 years as an inpatient bedside nurse and one year in precision genomics.

A passion for oncology has been a driving force in Heather's career. She believes that the advancements in cancer care will continue to evolve, resulting in treatments that will both increase efficacy in curing cancer as well as decrease side effects of treatment. The true understanding of a cancer journey is both a passion and a mission for her. Community's navigation program is unique in its ability to guide, assess and manage patient care throughout this journey.

She enjoys spending time with family, and she and her husband continue a tradition of going on a honeymoon every year. An animal lover, she has raised chickens and has three senior dogs.
