About Us

Hi, I’m Kelly, a Family Nurse Practitioner with over 13 years of diverse experience in healthcare. But beyond the credentials and clinical experience, I’m someone who deeply understands the struggles and triumphs of a health journey, both as a provider and as a person.

Growing up in Pennsylvania, I was always fascinated by healthcare. My parents were EMTs, and as a child, I’d spend hours flipping through their old health books in the basement, dreaming of one day helping people. That passion led me to pursue nursing, eventually earning my Master’s in Nursing with a focus as a Family Nurse Practitioner from Simmons University in Boston, a city I fell in love with during my time there.

My nursing career has spanned ICU, oncology, hospice, primary care, and urgent care. Each role taught me invaluable lessons about caring for patients during some of their most vulnerable moments. But throughout my career, I noticed a common thread: so many chronic and recurring health issues could be improved or even prevented through a more proactive approach to health.

This realization planted the seed for what would become Off Coast Wellness. After years of focusing on reactive medicine, I decided to shift my focus to prevention. While on maternity leave with my son Halen, I struggled with postpartum depression and anxiety and realized just how burnt out I’d become. After talking with my husband, Taylor, we made the decision to bring Off Coast Wellness to life. What started as a virtual weight management practice has now grown into a comprehensive wellness practice offering in-person care, hormone optimization, functional nutrition, and so much more.

I’ve built my practice around hormone therapy because I’ve seen firsthand how profoundly it can improve quality of life and long-term health. Hormone optimization isn’t just something I offer, it’s something I’m deeply passionate about and continually investing in, because when hormones are properly supported, everything from energy, mood, metabolism, sleep, and mental clarity can change.

I’ve completed extensive advanced training in hormone therapy through WorldLink Medical (Levels 1–4), Elite NP’s Basic and Advanced Hormone Courses for both women and men, HRT University, and the Heather Hirsch Academy, where I earned my designation as a Hormone Specialist. This training allows me to provide thoughtful, evidence-based, and highly individualized care rather than one-size-fits-all treatment.

While I care for both men and women, my specialty is supporting women through perimenopause and menopause, helping them navigate symptoms while also focusing on chronic disease prevention and long-term wellness. I also work closely with patients managing PCOS, PMDD, and other hormone-related conditions, always with the goal of improving how they feel now while protecting their health for the future.

Hormone therapy, when done correctly and thoughtfully, can be truly life-changing and helping patients feel like themselves again is the most rewarding part of what I do.

Today, I’m proud to call Delaware my home, where I live with my husband and our two amazing children, our spirited daughter, Leighton, and our sweet and joyful son, Halen. My family is my world and the reason I continue to push forward in building this practice.

At Off Coast Wellness, my goal is simple: to truly listen to my patients and help them achieve sustainable health. My goal is to empower you to feel your best, physically, mentally, and emotionally.
