About Natalie
- I’ve been interested in science from a young age—I first thought I wanted to become a science teacher and later decided I wanted to become a doctor.
- I started college as a biology major but switched to child development after learning more about psychology and realizing that I wanted to become a neuropsychologist.
- I did two years of neuropsychology research to gain experience and then applied to graduate school.
- After earning my master’s degree in clinical rehabilitation psychology, I completed a year-long internship in clinical psychology at the Children’s Hospital of Michigan.
- I then went into specialty training and completed a fellowship in pediatric neuropsychology.
- After that advanced training, I went straight to City of Hope, where I work as a clinical neuropsychologist.
- I also train doctoral-level psychology students in conducting neuropsychological evaluations as the director of the Neuropsychology Clerkship.
