Paige Vicenzi, MD

After immigrating to Texas from Hong Kong, my parents raised my two older sisters and me in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Following in my sisters’ footsteps, I attended the University of Texas at Austin, where I earned a B.S. in Biochemistry. Before attending medical school at the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine near my hometown in Fort Worth, I began my career as an analyst in Health Informatics, providing me invaluable insight into the potential behind big data mining and other intersections of health and technology. My experiences in medical school and residency at Dell Medical in Austin solidified my aspiration to pursue hematology/oncology.  Inspired by exceptional mentors and the grace and resiliency of these patients, the accumulation of their stories and support led me to fellowship at St. Jude. I am deeply honored and ecstatic to pursue my interests in cancer genomics and precision oncology. Though many of my free weekends will be spent visiting my husband, a Sports Medicine fellow in Kentucky, I also enjoy long outdoor walks with a good podcast and discovering new food and drink spots around town.
