She was raised in Connecticut and attended Skidmore College in New York, where she received a degree in Science. She excelled in the arts and wanted to become an architect like her father and brother, but since women were not allowed in the architectural profession in those years and because of the Great Recession, she studied science and medicine as these skills were seriously needed at the time.
