Kendall is from the Bay Area in Northern California. The youngest of three, her childhood was consumed with academics, swimming, and soccer, the latter of which allowed her to play at a small liberal arts university in Southern California. During a summer research internship, she fell in love with marine mammals and, by chance, ended up pursuing a career in fisheries research. A job moved her to Seattle, Washington and after a couple years in the workforce she changed paths and found a passion in medicine. She attended medical school at the University of Washington where she thought she would pursue primary care but was surprised by how much she loved her surgery rotation, and then expanded medical school to find her specialty. During this additional year she discovered PM&R and welcomed her daughter, Andie, into the world. Outside of work, she loves to spend time outdoors with her family and dog. She is very excited for this next chapter in Nashville and thrilled to join the Vanderbilt family!
