Born and raised is suburban West Chester where she started her medical career as a pharmacy technician, to rural medicine where she completed her medical school training at the Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine, and now spends time in the hustle bustle of urban health at Temple University Hospital treating a medically complex population in a safety net hospital.
