Michelle grew up in Nashville, Tennessee. She received her undergraduate degree in biology at Yale University (Boola Boola!) and was the captain of the Women’s Swimming and Diving Team. Following her undergraduate studies, she continued research on the early stages of HIV and its effects on the nervous system. She returned to Tennessee to complete medical school at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis, where she developed a healthy obsession with the Grizzlies. While working at the free student-run clinic, she gained a strong passion for addressing health disparities in underserved communities. She is delighted to return to her hometown and join the Vanderbilt family! In her free time, she’s out hiking trails, battling her love-hate relationship with running, and exploring new recipes and restaurants with her friends and family.
