Why Med-Peds?:
"I am a jack of all trades kind of person and want to be well versed in so many different pathologies (both the bread and butter, and rare medicine). Pediatrics always brings out the goofball kid I am at heart, while medicine brings out my nerdy side. And I really want to blend the best of both worlds!"
What do you plan on doing when finished residency (if known)?
"I have plans to pursue a career as a hospitalist, with a possible focus on palliative care."
Outside interests:
"Outside of medicine, I enjoy photography, weightlifting, long-distance running, painting, traveling, and fashion."
