Triple Board Residency Program

Shauna grew up in Guilford, CT before attending college at UCLA where she majored in Neuroscience with a minor in Spanish. Her involvement in Camp Kesem, a camp that supports children through and beyond a parent’s cancer, sparked her interest in mental healthcare for the pediatric and young adult population. Shauna received her MD in 2023 from Vanderbilt University School of Medicine where she was the recipient of the Robert F. Miller Community Service Award for her work as one of the directors of Vanderbilt’s student-run free clinic, Shade Tree, which provides free holistic healthcare to uninsured patients in Nashville. Shauna’s interest in caring for pediatric patients in marginalized communities drove her to start a specialized clinic within Shade Tree to meet the medical and psychiatric needs of the uninsured, immigrant pediatric patient population.  She is overjoyed to be joining the Triple Board program at Brown, where she found a caring, family-like community with top-notch training at clinical sites dedicated to each of her areas of interest. In her free time, Shauna enjoys playing music, reading, spin classes, and hiking the National Parks (she thinks the Badlands in South Dakota is the most underrated). She is especially excited to be back in New England nearby family and friends!
