Undergraduate School: University of Florida

Life Before Medical School: I grew up in South Florida, where my love for diversity, beaches, and food first took shape. In college, I became involved with Global Medical Missions Alliance (an organization I am still a part of today), which strengthened my interest in medical missions and mentorship. Before medical school, I worked as a medical assistant and scribe in a dermatologic Mohs surgery clinic while also tutoring and mentoring younger students.

Why Community Memorial? I was drawn to this program because of its strong emphasis on mentorship. I really felt that the attendings are genuinely invested in residents' education and take time out of their own schedules to teach and support their growth. The program's values also align closely with my own, especially its commitment to medical mission work and addressing gaps in care. I also really appreciated the diversity among both the residents and faculty, which creates a supportive and well-rounded training environment.

Hobbies: Ballet, playing piano, hiking, traveling, baking, and videography.
