A: I was born & raised in New York but have been living in Maine for the past 15 years. I went to the University of Vermont for my undergrad then went to the University of Southern Maine to receive my RN and NP licenses. After graduating, I began working in cardiology and long-term care.

A: I first heard about Age Management Center of New England through my friend and colleague, Allison Gray. We went to the University of Southern Maine together while I was furthering my education to become a Nurse Practitioner. After graduating, we kept in touch and she always spoke very highly of Dr. Bedecs and the Age Management Center of New England team. I was excited to start working at AMC because I’m really interested in the practice’s approach of focusing primarily on integrative and holistic health.

A: Before entering the medical field, I had a strong passion for teaching. I was actually a high school teacher in New York for several years and taught global studies. Another fun fact is that I was also a professional musician from ages 20 to 26!
