Léonie was born in Canada and grew up in the French-Canadian village of St-Alexis-des-Monts. She then moved to Orlando, Florida with her family at the age of 10. She attended the University of West Florida where she taught Zumba classes and pursued a Biomedical Sciences degree. She returned to Orlando for medical school at the University of Central Florida. She developed a passion for nutrition and preventive health and supplemented her education with research and leadership in the field of Lifestyle Medicine. Outside of the hospital, she enjoys cycling, salsa dancing, hiking, plant-based cooking, and channeling her inner grandma through cross-stitch and quilting. She is excited to continue grocery shopping at Publix and join the Vanderbilt/Nashville community!
