Hobbies
Outside of work, I enjoy riding and showing horses, skiing, solving jigsaw puzzles, and spending time with my fiancée and our dog.
What are your favorite things to do/ things you look forward to doing in the Denver Area?
My fiancée and I look forward to enjoying the outdoor spaces around Denver, and being in such close proximity to some of the state and national parks we have not yet visited. We’re also excited to explore Denver’s food scene and try new restaurants.
What do you think is the biggest strength of our program?
I think the program’s biggest strength is the close-knit community. Throughout the application and interview process, everyone was incredibly welcoming, and I heard from many different individuals how supported they felt at CU. I saw that the attendings enjoy medical education and also clearly care about the residents as people.
