Last Frontier Eye Care Team
Born and raised in Montana, Dr. Kapp studied biology and business management at Carroll College in Helena, MT. She graduated from Pacific University College of Optometry in Forest Grove, OR in 2008, and completed a student rotation at YKHC in Bethel. As a new graduate, she moved to Nome and has since been serving the people of the Norton Sound region as an optometrist. She enjoys taking care of patients of all ages and is especially passionate about treating ocular disease. One of her favorite parts about working and living rural Alaska is traveling to villages and getting to know her patients and their culture.
In her spare time, Dr. Kapp enjoys dog mushing, fishing, hunting, spending time at camp, and traveling.
