She completed her Master of Nursing Practice Degree at Purdue University Global, graduating with honors while working as an RN in Monroe and surrounding counties. She has ten years of experience as an RN, dedicated to providing personalized and compassionate care.   Working in Women’s Health, Tara provided exceptional care, focusing on wellness and disease prevention. With the state of our national healthcare system and the incredible need for personalized medicine, Tara felt compelled to go back to school and study at The Institute of Functional Medicine. The rigorous program was very challenging and fueled Tara’s continued desire for evidence-based medicine, leading to the creation of The Functional Nurse Practitioner Podcast.

Tara opened her own practice, The Functional Nurse Practitioner, LLC, and has not looked back. Specializing in root cause medicine, Tara takes a different approach, unraveling each client’s unique story in order to facilitate optimal health. Tara’s podcast continues to provide an exceptional education for her community, and her platform is highly regarded within the health and wellness space.
