Dr. Angela Lane, Associate Professor of Nursing at Belmont, was recently recognized as the 2021 Walk to Cure Arthritis Adult Honoree with the Arthritis Foundation. As a current associate professor of Nursing, Lane has worked for the past 30 years as a nurse tech, registered nurse and advanced practice nurse.

When Lane was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis at age eight and then again at age 20, she recognized a passion for giving back to this community. Through her experience with arthritis, she has demonstrated selflessness as she continues to serve others in the Arthritis Foundation community.

Lane is currently on the board with the Nashville Arthritis Local Leadership Board and has just commenced her work as chair. In addition to her work with this community, she serves as the Pediatric Clinical Course Coordinator at Belmont and continues to educate nursing students.
