She traveled with her husband Sumner, a family physician to Columbus, OH for pediatric training at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Upon completion of training, she worked as a general pediatrician in Boise, ID for several years while raising her young family.

There she had an exceptional solid tumor team committed to caring for many wonderful kids and young adults.
