Anne Koster
My interest in the medical field started when I was a Ski Patroller in college in Minnesota. I then went to paramedic school and when I graduated went to work in the Chicago area. I moved to Billings Montana to work in an attempt to move close to the mountains. While I lived in Montana I went back to school and got my ADN/BSN/MSN while I lived there. After graduating with my FNP I moved to the White Mountains in Arizona and worked in family practice and then moved into the local emergency room. I moved to Idaho in 2007 working in the urgent care setting. Most recently I have started working at St Lukes in the emergency department and have been teaching for ISU.
