Hello!\u00a0 My name is Genie, and I am originally from the Eastern Shore of Maryland, where I grew up surrounded by family and going to the beach.\u00a0 I traded my rural surroundings for city life by attending Fordham University in NYC, where I graduated May 2018.\u00a0 At Fordham, I was a biology and theology double-major and was an active member of the University Choir and served as a freshman advisor.\u00a0 I tried out bench research for over a year, researching mutations in the homologous recombination pathway that are incident in forms of breast and prostate cancer at Memorial Sloan Kettering.\u00a0 While I gained an appreciation for basic cancer research, I realized I am more of a people person, so I transitioned into a clinical research position at Albert Einstein, spending a year working on evaluating an integrated model of behavioral and mental health care in pediatric primary care settings.\u00a0 Pediatrics, specifically in primary care, has long been an interest of mine, particularly for the longitudinal nature of care delivered throughout developmental milestones.\u00a0 I am so excited to be a part of GSP, to be a part of a community focused on providing high quality primary health care to all people.\u00a0 The community atmosphere at UVA is one of the reasons I decided to attend, and I have loved every minute of getting to explore everything Charlottesville and the surrounding counties have to offer!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
