Professional Interests
I'm interested in global health and want to stay involved throughout my career. Fellowship-wise, I'm leaning toward Pediatric Radiology or Cardiothoracic Imaging but staying open to other possibilities.
Hobbies
Exploring my Discover Weekly on Spotify, jamming on my guitar, sci-fi/thriller books or movies, playing pickleball, and outdoor adventures.
What are you looking forward to doing in the Denver area?
Discovering Denver's hiking trails and enjoying group/solo outdoor activities are at the top of my list. I'm also excited to dive into the local food scene and experience a live concert at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre!
What is the program's biggest strength?
I believe the program's biggest strength is the camaraderie among the team. From the moment I interviewed, every member conveyed a genuine sense of enjoyment in their work, making it clear that this residency fosters both academic and personal growth.
