After graduating from college, Gracie moved back to Dallas and began working as a medical assistant in a dermatology office in Plano while applying to graduate school to become a Physician Assistant. In the summer of 2017, Gracie moved to Galveston, Texas to attend the University of Texas Medical Brach (“UTMB”) to become a Physician Assistant.
