Crystal is a Nurse Practitioner certified through the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners. She earned her advanced nursing degree from University of Virginia. She  loves caring for the Lynchburg community because, "providing committed and compassionate care, while serving my fellow community, is not only humbling, but provides a powerful connection and trusting relationship while continuing to improve the health of the ones around me." When she is not providing care at the Heart and Vascular Institute,  she likes to spend her time gardening, exercising, traveling and serving in her church ministry.
