Amanda Curtis

FNP Aesthetic Nurse

Amanda Curtis FNP-BC, our new nurse practitioner is a lover of all things wellness, movement, fitness, beauty, nutrition and sleep. I am a foodie/fitness junkie who grew up in Western NC around the Charlotte area and received my first Bachelor of Science from the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.
 
After a 7-year active-duty career, I went on to pursue my passion through the wholistic approach that nursing offered. I graduated from University of Texas Health Science Center in 2015 with my accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing. As a military veteran and military spouse, I traveled all the world supporting my active-duty spouse while completing my MSN from Simmons University in 2020 with my clinical rotations being completed at the US Naval hospital in Guam.
My nursing experience spans medical surgical bedside nursing, emergency department, community health, Covid response, family practice and aesthetics.
 
I met my husband while on active-duty and we now have 3 beautiful children. Mom life if the best and craziest life! We enjoy spending time with our 3 kiddos enjoying nature (as me about our 3+month RV trip after his military retirement), sailing (Weta Trimaran), skiing (thanks Colorado), traveling/experiencing and showing our kids this beautiful world of ours. You can find us volunteering our time with our church family on Sundays.
