Her decision to pursue nursing came in her first year of college, when she was studying elementary education. While working in a group home, she had a sad experience where her favorite patient was in the ICU, dying. The ICU RN who took care of him and also brought Amanda comfort made her realize she wanted to make a positive impact on others, even in difficult times. After that encounter, she switched her major and earned her degree in nursing from IU South Bend and then became an ICU nurse. “Inclusive, evidence-based care should be available to everyone. I believe in advocating for every patient and the positive effects of empowering patients to attain their highest possible quality of life, whatever way they define it.” As a trained family nurse practitioner with a focus on physical medicine & rehabilitation, Amanda practices medicine with a strong focus on function, recovery, and quality of life. “I help patients regain independence, return to meaningful activities, and participate in work and daily life,” she says. In her own words… Who is or was the most influential people/role models in your life? My mom. Through her example, she teaches me resilience, empowerment, and kindness. What was your first job growing up? What do you remember about it? My first job was at Subway. I still remember the smell of the food on my clothes and hair when I would come home. What is your favorite food? Movie? Favorite food: Italian Favorite movie: Elf What were your best subjects in school growing up? I did best in math and science If you could sit down to dinner with anyone (alive or deceased) who would it be and why? My dad. He taught me to always be my authentic self, work hard, and to be nice to people. I would love nothing more than more time and conversations with him. In addition to medicine, what are you passionate about? I am passionate about traveling and learning more about the world, myself, and others. What are your hobbies, interests? I love being outdoors with my husband and dog. I enjoy camping, hiking, kayaking, paddleboarding, and riding my bike. I also enjoy trying new foods and attending live theater. Do you have pets? I have a Bichon Frise and her name is Evelyn Rose, but we call her Evie for short. She means the world to me! What is something most people don’t know about you? I played ice hockey in college.
