Hi everyone! My name is Vanessa, I grew up in the western suburbs of Chicago. I attended UIC for undergrad and UIC-Rockford for medical school. In my free time I enjoy cooking, baking, and drawing. I am also a plant mom and have over 30 plants in my apartment! I am enjoying exploring Michigan and have made many life-long friendships here at Sparrow.
