Christina Interpreter FNP-C

Summary

• A Female Native American Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) from both the Hopi and Navajo tribes. I grew up on both Hopi and Navajo reservations in the small towns of Kykotsmovi and Kayenta Arizona. I have received two bachelor’s degrees from Northern Arizona University; Health Promotion/Education and Nursing. She worked in the areas of public health/clinic setting, general/trauma surgery, transplant surgery and emergency specialties for both private and Indian Health Services. I then went on to attain my Master’s degree from the University of California San Francisco, Family Nurse Practitioner program. My fellowship provided added training of her current passion, diabetes medical management. Prior to coming onboard with Salt River in 2017, I worked with Gila River Health Care as an FNP.
  As a native female, I uphold the native values of sustaining family generations, and my ambition is to influence the future of family legacies. In my free time away from the clinic, I enjoy family time, staying home, enjoying movies and continues to be inspired by her patients, and her family: fiancé, daughters and grandchildren.
