Patient Care Coordinator

I was born and raised just outside of Minneapolis, Minnesota, and moved to Denver, Colorado for college, where I earned my B.S. in Biological Sciences at the University of Denver. After graduation, I worked as a medical assistant at a pediatric clinic in Denver, an experience that solidified my decision to pursue a career in medicine. Last summer, I moved to Bozeman, where began working at Bozeman Clinic to gain additional clinical experience before attending medical school. Outside of medicine, I enjoy hiking with my dog, climbing, traveling, and keeping up with my hobbies of figure skating and violin.
