Hi, I'm Gabby! I am a senior at LSU pursuing a degree in sociology with a minor in psychology. I hope to pursue a career in mental health as a social worker and work with adolescents. I have had the opportunity to learn so much from the clinicians and administrators at Genesis. At Genesis, I do mostly administrative work and billing, but I try my best to alleviate some of the work for the clinicians so they can focus solely on their clients!

Hi, I'm Maddie, your office manager and medical assistant for the Metairie office. I kickstarted my journey with a solid foundation, earning my high school diploma from Crescent City Christian School in Metairie, LA. From there, I pursued higher education, obtaining an Associate's Degree in General Studies from Delgado Community College in New Orleans, LA.

Driven by a desire to make a tangible difference in people's lives, I then honed my skills through specialized training, earning a certificate in medical assisting from Eastern College, also located in New Orleans.

Maddie is equipped with a comprehensive understanding of healthcare practices and a dedication to compassionate patient care. I'm excited to be a part of the Genesis team offering skills with administrative tasks and patient needs.
