Family - Focused

Growing up on a farm in southwest ND and following my dad around, I knew at an early age that I wanted to be my own boss. So, when I was 15, I decided since I liked science, working with people and wanted to be self-employed, I was going to be a chiropractor. I went to Dickinson State University for undergraduate work and attended Palmer College of Chiropractic, the Fountainhead of Chiropractic.  Palmer is where I specialized in chiropractic and also where I met my beautiful wife and partner, Dr. Dawn. We have four amazing children and enjoy being active outside with them.

I believe my purpose is to be a faithful optimistic leader who helps establish solid foundations of love, compassion, health and wellness. Doing this will enable me to promote healthy teams and families; and chiropractic is a great expression of who I am and what I love to do!

Like I tell our son often, we get to put smiles on people’s faces everyday.

I am a small town girl with a big vision!  I was raised in Hemingford, Nebraska and attended Chadron State College and completed my undergraduate and received a Bachelor’s in Human Biology.  I went on to attend Palmer College of Chiropractic and graduated as a Doctor of Chiropractic in 2000.

Together with my husband, Dr. Scott, we own a wonderful Gonstead Chiropractic practice. At All About Potential we love to see families.  It is our priority to make sure everyone understands the importance of a fully functioning Nervous System.  We also want our patients to enjoy life so with a little education, a little more compassion and a whole lot of love we help patients to reach their maximum potential.

Not only am I a wife and Chiropractor, but I am also a mother of four awesome children.  We have a lot of fun and our family is definitely, our priority.

I didn’t choose chiropractic, it chose me! The reason I chose chiropractic is for my migraines. I received care from different doctors in the past, but one adjustment from Dr. Dawn helped me like nothing ever had before! I was in the Exercise Science program at BHSU and asked Dr. Scott if I could intern at their office. They said yes and it was the first step in my journey of actually becoming a chiropractor.

I studied at Parker University in Dallas, TX and am so happy to be back serving the Spearfish community along side my mentors. I grew up on a ranch in western North Dakota with my 3 siblings, parents and grandparents so family is very important to me!

I enjoy the outdoors, the lake, ranch life type activities, and finding a good patio to camp out on. I aspire to be a light around everyone I come into contact with each day. You never know how you can affect someone when you’re kind and caring, sharing God’s love!

I was raised on a farm and ranch south of Mandan, ND. I am the oldest of four children
and have one sister and two brothers. Growing up, I got to learn alongside my parents how if
you truly love what you do you will never have to work a day in your life. That is what drove me to find what my passion in life would be. I always knew I wanted to work in health care, but did not know where I was going to fit in. That is until I discovered what Gonstead Chiropractic was. I got to see how specific chiropractic care changed my entire family’s lives. I decided to go to the University of North Dakota in Grand Forks, North Dakota where I
graduated with my Bachelor’s in Kinesiology. I had a wonderful time in Grand Forks minus the
freezing weather that I do not miss!! After that I went on to Palmer College of Chiropractic in
Davenport, Iowa to complete my doctorate degree in Chiropractic. I was involved in the
Gonstead Club on campus and have attended many workshops and seminars furthering my
education and knowledge in the Gonstead Technique. During my last trimester of school, I
completed my preceptorship here at All About Potential from July-October 2024. Not only did I fall in love with the area, I got to know everyone here at AAP and couldn’t imagine a better work environment. I graduated at the end of October 2024 with Magna Cum Laude honors and started here in January 2025.
In my free time I enjoy being active, walking outdoors, playing pickleball, and hanging
out with all my amazing friends and family. I also enjoy riding horses back home, as I competed in rodeo growing up all the way through highschool. I love to travel, enjoy the sunshine and seem to always be up to something whenever I have a free moment.
I am truly so excited to be here and look forward to serving God’s people!

I was raised on a ranch in the little “town” of Hammond, MT, which only has a post office and a small country school. I attended school there with my three sisters until 8th grade and then went to high school in Broadus about 30 miles away. After graduating, I attended Sheridan College and received my A.A.S and massage certificate. I had always wanted to live in Spearfish so when God opened up a massage position with Scott and Dawn I was excited to take it. I’ve been on the All About Potential Team since 2015. Being a part of this team has been an incredible blessing from God.

When I’m not serving with my team, I enjoy trying new recipes, singing, reading, meeting with friends, and being outside (when it’s warm of course!). Oh and we can’t forget long walks on the beach. I’m involved a great deal with my church family and have thoroughly enjoyed meeting and connecting with the people who come into All About Potential.

I grew up in Dickinson, ND and moved to Spearfish in 1991 to attend Black Hills State University. I graduated with a BA in Elementary/Early Childhood Education and spent the next 23 years teaching or working with children in different settings. I’ve always loved working with kids but after much prayer, I felt God was leading me to step out of my comfort zone and try something new.

I joined the All About Potential team in June of 2019 as a front desk assistant. I love the team I work with and greeting our patients with a smile as they walk through our doors.

When I’m not behind the front desk, I enjoy spending time with my family, volunteer work with children, family vacations, hiking, and snow skiing.

I grew up in a small mountain town in Colorado before moving to my grandparents’ ranch in Wyoming during 7th grade. Nearly five years later, my family and I moved to Spearfish, and I am so grateful to be a part of this community. In 2023, I joined All About Potential as the New Patient Processor under Dr. Scott and Dr. Dawn. It has been incredibly fulfilling to interact with our wonderful patients and spend every day surrounded by such kind people.

I love hanging out with my family, baking, and spending time outdoors trying to wear out my
crazy dog! I believe the Lord has me where I am meant to be, and I am so thankful for all the
blessings he has given me.

I grew up in Sheridan, Wyoming and lived in Spearfish for 25 years. When our children were young, I worked in the Spearfish school district. I enjoyed working with the young children of Spearfish. God led me to a position with All About Potential in 2003.

Through the years I have been fortunate to learn the many positions in our office. I am now the billing specialist. All About Potential has truly been blessed by so many people and as God’s servant it is my honor to serve them in any way I can. I love our team as well as our patients.

Spending time with family is my favorite pastime. I thoroughly enjoy exploring, swimming, hiking and anything that includes our grandchildren as well as spending time at our cabin in the Big Horns.
