Marlowe Barrington, RN is a nurse with a background in pediatric care, including oncology and high-acuity inpatient settings. Her clinical background includes chemotherapy and biotherapy administration for children and adolescents with cancer, sickle cell disease, immunodeficiencies, and other complex conditions. She has also worked as a certified nursing assistant in pediatric oncology/hematology and home health settings serving older adults.
Marlowe earned dual degrees in Nursing (BSN) and Comparative History of Ideas (BA) from the University of Washington. As a recipient of the Mary Gates Research Scholarship, she examined how hagiographies (idealized biographies) of foundational nursing figures obscure the racist and colonial origins of nursing and how this erasure continues to shape nursing. During her undergraduate years, she also served as a leader within Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., organizing community-centered initiatives focused on women's health, breast cancer education, mental health advocacy, and intergenerational engagement between college students and seniors in the community.
At Tubman Health, Marlowe is excited to support chronic disease management, reduce barriers and improve access to care, and partner with patients and families in their care to achieve equitable health outcomes and more positive clinical experiences.
