Dancing for Gold® 2024

Hello, my name is Katy Muller. I have been blessed with an amazing husband for the last seven years, where we have welcomed two handsome boys, Colten seven years old and Grady five years old. I was born and raised right here in Paducah, Kentucky. Where I have worked as a registered nurse at Baptist
Health Paducah, formerly known as western Baptist hospital for the past 14 years, mainly in the areas of oncology, orthopedics and neurology. 

I have always been a home body and love my hometown. I attended college close to home, including West Kentucky Community and Technical College, Murray State University, and most recently, the University of Southern Indiana. Where I completed my masters in nursing and achieved my greatest accomplishment and obtained my family nurse practitioner license. I now serve the surrounding communities as a nurse practitioner with Baptist Health Urology Group. 

In my spare time, I enjoy every moment with my boys, of which keep me busy on and off the ball fields. When I am not at a ballfield, you will find me at the Kentucky Lake, where we love to boat and camp. 

During my many years working as an and oncology nurse in the hospital, I saw firsthand that cancer does not discriminate. It is all over and in all ages. I saw the physical, mental, and emotional strain it put on families day in and day out. I watched many 20 through 30 year olds have to say goodbye to their
children and loved ones , knowing I had done all I could do, but wishing I could do so much more. Throughout my career as an oncology nurse I only had the opportunity to care for the adult population as it is unfortunate we do not treat pediatric cancer closer to home. Which is one of the many reasons I
am dancing for gold. In hopes to bring awareness of the many children in our area and surrounding areas battling childhood cancer that would benefit from care closer to home.
