Bio
  • Pediatric Hospital Medicine Fellow - University of Tennessee Health Science Center 2023-2025
  • Medical School – Vanderbilt University School of Medicine

I was born in Germany and grew up in central Illinois. I completed my undergraduate training at the University of Illinois, then moved down to Tennessee. I completed the medical scientist training program at Vanderbilt University, where I already fell in love with Pediatric hospitalist medicine. This interest continued through my residency training at UTHSC in Chattanooga. I am happy to continue in the UT family now at Memphis to complete my training. I have a passion for medical education and investigation. I met my husband during residency, and we married right before our move to Memphis with our cat Sep. We are enjoying getting to know Memphis and all it has to offer!

Bio
Amanda was born and raised here in Memphis, TN. She received her BS in Biology from the University of Memphis before attending medical school at UTHSC. She then completed pediatric residency at Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital and is so thankful to continue training with her favorite people at her favorite hospital for PHM fellowship. If she is not at work, she is likely on her couch watching a random documentary, eating Chick-fil-A, or having a margarita with her friends.
