Bianca earned her Associates Degree in Nursing here in the Golden Isles at the College of Coastal Georgia. She then worked in the Critical Care Unit as a Registered Nurse at the Mayo Clinic Health Systems in Waycross, Georgia gaining clinical experience as she continued her education further. She completed a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing at Georgia Southern University while she continued providing care to patients during her educational career. In 2013, she completed her Master's of Science in Nursing and obtained her Family Nurse Practitioner degree from Medical College of Georgia. Bianca has a passion for preventing chronic illness and developing treatment plans with patients to manage an array of medical issues.
Living in the area she calls home, she has been providing primary care to her community for over a decade. She enjoys mentoring and providing clinical preceptorships to students joining her profession. Her passion is in preventive medicine and she truly feels like her calling in life has been helping her community through providing healthcare and education.
Other than nursing, she enjoys her aquarium, the beach, especially boat trips to Cumberland Island, and spending time with her family. (Husband, Preston, children Mary Lee, Janie Rae, and the newest addition, Juliet Ida born August 2021, and her Bichons, Cannoli, and Sassie).
Brandy was born and raised in Brantley County, with roots across Brunswick and the Golden Isles. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Armstrong Atlantic State University and worked as a Registered Nurse on the Medical-Surgical floor at Southeast Georgia Health System. Next, she received her Master’s in Nursing Education from Georgia Southwestern University and spent 9 years teaching nursing at the College of Coastal Georgia. Most recently, she earned a second Master’s degree in nursing from Georgia Southern University and certified as a Family Nurse Practitioner.
When asked why she became a nurse practitioner, Brandy replied: “I want to offer education, quality health care management, and kindness to patients. Primary care presents an opportunity to impact changes which reduce morbidity and improve overall quality of life.”
Outside of work, Brandy enjoys spending time with her husband Chris and two girls, Ansley Kate and Baylee Shea. The girls keep her busy…so her hobbies include playing Barbie, dressing up, reading the Wonky Donkey, and swimming in her pool.
