Anne has had three separate and fulfilling careers in her life – a Botanist for the Forest Service, a proud mother of three children, and a Home Health and Hospice nurse manager. Anne grew up in Minnesota and began her nursing career at age 19 working in a veteran’s hospital in Minneapolis. Her adventurous nature led her to Montana where she worked for the Forest Service as a botanist and resource manager, and proudly implemented two herbariums for the Lee Metcalf Wildlife Refuge and MSU Biological Research Station in the Bitterroot Valley.
While raising her children, Anne worked as a ski instructor, soccer coach, softball coach, and finished nursing school. She discovered her love for home health and hospice care in Missoula, which ultimately led her into nurse management. In her free time Anne enjoys skiing, hiking, rafting, fishing, biking, and camping.
Anne is very excited and happy to serve as Director of Healthcare Services for Interim HealthCare, utilizing her skills and experience to change the local healthcare culture, enrich people’s lives, and make a difference in the delivery of home health care in central Montana!
