Born in St. Paul, Minnesota, the third of five children, to an internationally renowned plant geneticist and former World War II relocation camp internee, Dr. Macri graduated from the International School, Islamabad, Pakistan in 1975, and received a Bachelor of Science Degree from Lehigh University in 1979. She was the first woman to letter in Men's soccer at Lehigh University and played both men's and women's soccer throughout her collegiate career.
 
Dr. Macri attended Temple University School of Medicine on a Navy Scholarship and graduated with an M.D. degree in 1983. She continued her training at the National Naval Medical Center as a General Surgery intern and as a resident in Obstetrics and Gynecology. She was then selected for and completed a prestigious fellowship in Gynecologic Oncology at the University of California, Irvine, the premier Gyn Oncology Fellowship in the country.
 
Dr. Macri has devoted her entire military career to education at the graduate, undergraduate and post-graduate levels. She was appointed as OB/GYN Residency Director at NNMC, and became the National Capital Consortium Associate Program Director (OB/GYN) and Gynecologic Oncology Fellowship Director after the integration of residency programs in the National Capital Consortium (NCC). In addition, she served as Division Director for Gynecology and Gynecologic Oncology at NNMC before moving to the Naval Medical Education and Training Command (NMETC).
 
Dr. Macri was selected Vice President for Recruitment and Diversity in September 2002. Her most recent duty station was Director of Medical Department Accessions at NMETC, Bethesda, where she managed the Armed Forces Health Professions Scholarship Program (AFHPSP), the Navy's Health Professions Loan Repayment Program (HPLRP), and other accessions programs for the Navy medical department. In addition, she served as Department Head for Continuing Medical Education (CME) for the Navy, gaining full accreditation for the CME Program for the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) and authoring the Commercial Support Policy and the Policy on Faculty Disclosure that was instrumental in bringing NMETC into compliance with the ACCME.
 
Dr. Macri has received four personal awards, the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal, the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal, and the Meritorious Service Medal (2) - all for her contributions to the education of medical department officers over her twenty-year career.
