About Me

I'm Karen Ulrich, a certified nurse midwife (CNM), and I joined Phelps Health in 2015 as an advanced practice registered nurse. I began working with Phelps Health as a registered nurse (RN) in 2007. My collaborating physician is Phelps Health Obstetrician and Gynecologist Jenny Pennycook, MD, FACOG.

I earned my Master’s Degree in Nursing in 2014 from the University of Cincinnati. I had previously earned a Bachelor of Science in Cytotechnology from the University of Tennessee in 1993. I changed career paths, however, and earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from the University of Colorado in 2007.
