HER NATURE HIS NURTURE 
Hi Allie,
I stumbled upon your website when I was looking for images of pectus carinatum for my presentation on Marfan Syndrome. I’m a genetic counseling student at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan but I’m originally from Toronto.
Your name doesn’t sound familiar, so I was wondering where you’re currently working. I will be doing a summer internship at SickKids this July and August to start getting an idea of what kind of genetic counseling network exists back home.
Any insights you might have are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sohnee
