Michelle and her whole family are originally from Ecuador, where she lived until she was 8 years old. They then moved to Sarasota, FL which is where she grew up until leaving for college. She went to college at John’s Hopkins, medical school at Jefferson/Sidney Kimmel Medical College, and is finishing her pediatrics residency at NYU. Her biggest accomplishment throughout her schooling/training has been her devotion to diversity and inclusion.
