Liana was born and raised in Savannah, Georgia, where she was constantly surrounded by history, the arts, and healthy living. She developed a passion for all of the above, becoming a historic tour guide, studying classical voice performance, and pursuing a Nutrition Science degree at the University of Georgia (Go dawgs!). Her interests in promoting health and wellbeing led her to the Medical College of Georgia, where she was involved in leadership for student-run clinics and especially appreciated working with immigrant populations. She loves caring for patients across the lifespan and is thrilled to be joining the Vanderbilt Med-Peds family. She hopes that she will be able to serve children and adults in resource-limited settings throughout her career, and maybe even bring a Med-Peds program back to her home state of Georgia someday. In the meantime, you can find her long-distance running, trying new coffee shops, and singing with her band, Major Groove (yes, like the DNA strand). She is excited to explore all that Nashville has to offer and will be enjoying “Music City” to the fullest.
