Madison Smith, RN, CCRP
- Program Coordinator, ARIA Program
Departments
Madison’s interest in health care started while interning with ALSAC's donor relations team in 2008, leading her to obtain RN licensure before completing her bachelor's degree in liberal studies. This diverse educational background allowed her to succeed as a clinical research coordinator at West Cancer Center and Research Institute, helping to revive the gynecologic oncology research program through increased awareness, communication, and clinical knowledge.
Additionally, she was instrumental in developing policies, procedures, and training for departmental quality improvement and workflow optimization throughout the life cycle of clinical research programs.
For Madison, returning to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is a meaningful, full-circle career milestone. With a servant leader’s heart and a naturally curious spirit, she is thrilled for the opportunity to expand St. Jude’s mission globally alongside the Global Pediatric Medicine team.
In her spare time, Madison enjoys spending quality time with her family, being outdoors, exploring all things Memphis, watching sports and reading.
