As a Montana local, I was raised in the northern Rocky Mountains where I grew up skiing, hiking, backpacking/camping, and on a perfect night, watching the Northern Lights. I relocated to Nashville after spending time in Utah for school and enjoying Salt Lake City’s stellar outdoor access. These days, when I’m not in the hospital, I enjoy being outside (I’m slowly adjusting to the Tennessee humidity), live music, vinyl records, brunch and Nashville's food scene, house plants, and book club gatherings. I am so grateful for the opportunity to train at Vanderbilt among such incredible and compassionate anesthesiology residents and faculty! I can’t wait for the next four years with this Vandy crew!
