Why Tori Chose the University of Colorado: Everyone I met on my interview day was extremely kind and down-to-earth, so I knew going to CU meant I'd be surrounded by supportive people who would become life-long friends. The variety of subspecialty exposure was key since I want to see it all before deciding on any one path, and the faculty seemed so amazing and ready to support that exploration! The cherry on top of all this was location! There are so many great ways to spend time outdoors which is my favorite way to mentally and physically recharge.
