Dr. Robinson was born and raised in New Orleans, LA and did her undergraduate studies at the University of Virginia. After college, the goal of becoming bilingual pulled her to Argentina where she was an ESL teacher for a year. Ultimately, she decided to return to the US to pursue a degree in medicine. Throughout medical school at LSUHSC and residency at VUMC, Dr. Robinson has been interested in underserved populations and immigrant communities. Growing up with a mother who immigrated from Colombia at the age of 10, she is specifically passionate about the Latino community and the hardships they, and other immigrants, face when relocating to an unknown country with language barriers. 

Dr. Robinson has traveled to the Andes mountains of Peru on multiple trips and led a group of medical students to India to care for Tibetan refugees.  More recently, she has travels to Kenya as part of the longstanding relationship VUMC has with Kijabe Hospital.  Dr. Robinson hopes to form partnerships worldwide as an OBGYN to make a sustainable, appropriate impact where care is needed, and take those lessons home and apply them to her local community.
