Born in Idaho, I moved to Massachusetts at the tender age of two and liked it so much I never left. I went to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) located about 30 minutes away from Baystate, and can easily say western Massachusetts is one of the most beautiful areas in New England. 

I went to UMass Medical School, and then made the long trek 60 miles west to Springfield. Outside of the ED, I am an avid volleyball player, and I’m always up for Texas Hold’em or any board game you can think of. 

I love being at Baystate, and I’m looking forward to another group of interns to join our family. If you’d like to contact me directly, my email is michele.schroeder@baystatehealth.org. Good luck!
