A native Wisconsonite, Heather attended Columbus High School prior to heading to Minnesota and St. Cloud State University, where she earned a degree in Nursing. While competing for the Huskies, Heather made sure her name would be written in the history books as one of he most decorated athletes in school history. Not only did she bring home 10 All-American honors, but also multiple conference championshps, and the 2010 DII Pentathlon title. Now training with the New Balance Central Park Track Club, Heather is consistently in the hunt for the podium and has competed with the USA Thorpe Cup team on three occasions. All this, and she did not even start competing in the heptathlon until she was 21 years old.

Off the track, Heather is one of the few athletes who holds a career in addition to training at a high level. She worked as an RN at the Hospital for Special Surgery full-time while training full-time for three years while living in NYC, and now is a part-time Operating Room Nurse, specializing in orthopedic surgeries at United Hospital in St. Paul, MN. It is evident she holds a passion for both track & feld and nursing. Happily married to her coach, Ryan, when the time can be found, they enjoy watching all sports, especially college basketball and NFL.
