She completed her fellowship in pediatric hematology/oncology at Texas Children’s Cancer Center.[3]
Career
Rouce serves on the Board of Directors of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.[4]
Community engagement
Rouce leads a weekend science program at Baylor College of Medicine, rapping her own educational songs as "Rizzo".[1] She spent years volunteering for the Periwinkle Foundation helping children, siblings, and families affected with cancer. She served on a medical mission to Bolivia.[3]
