Erin joined OGI in 2020. She graduated from Winona State University in 2017 with her Doctor of Nursing as a Family Nurse Practitioner. Erin decided to become a nurse practitioner after working as a pediatric nurse in the cardiac intensive care unit. She realized she wanted to be with patients not only through times of high stress but, through their daily lives while they care for themselves to maintain and improve their health. As a provider, she enjoys continued work with adolescents and enjoys collaborating with all patients. She would like her patients to feel comfortable asking questions and she wants to answer and address them, empowering her patients to make positive choices regarding their health and well-being.

Emily joined OGI in 2017. She graduated in 2016 from the University of Minnesota Doctor of Nursing program in Womens Health. Before joining OGI Emily worked as an APRN in sexual and reproductive health. She also previously worked as an RN in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Fairview Southdale Hospital. During her time working as a NICU RN, Emily developed an interest in infertility and maternal health. She is happy to be at OGI where she is able to further her knowledge in these areas.
