Michelle Murphy, ARNP
Family Medicine & Functional Wellness
Michelle grew up in Tallahassee, Florida. She was raised by a single mother who put herself through law school while Michelle was still in elementary school. Michelle grew up with a strong appreciation for independence and education. She had a love for the outdoors and through that love she obtained her undergraduate degree in Environmental Science. She believed her future would be in field biology.
During her term as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Mali, West Africa, she spearheaded two projects in her small village, Kintieri, to support women's access to birth control and help the village elders with a small animal husbandry project to increase protein access for a population that faced severe malnourishment and the highest infant mortality rate on the planet.
Between these two life experiences she realized her passion for improving the human condition. She changed her course, and when she returned stateside started her academics in Family Medicine.
