Kimberly is a Family Nurse Practitioner with Norton Pulmonary Specialists—Downtown.  She splits her time between outpatient pulmonary patients and coordinating clinical trials for Norton’s Pulmonary Hypertension Center for Comprehensive Care, which is the only center in Kentucky accredited by the Pulmonary Hypertension Association. Research is her passion.  She has been a Sub-Investigator for over 50 Phase 1-4 Clinical trials in pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary fibrosis.  She loves developing closer relationships with patients who are in a trial while furthering the cause for better therapies and eventually a cure in rare diseases like pulmonary arterial hypertension. Kimberly grew up in Bardstown, KY but moved to Louisville right after college.  Outside of work she enjoys spending time with her husband, young daughter and extended family and friends while traveling, exploring the restaurant scene, and planning great meals.
