Why Community Memorial?: I had several rotations at Community Memorial Hospital, and each time I came back felt like coming home to a family of caring preceptors and supportive residents. I am particularly excited to train in an osteopathically recognized program that also prioritizes preventive care and serves its community deeply. The availability of healthy meals and being close to my family in Los Angeles made Community Memorial an even easier choice. I am honored to be a part of the inspiring team here and to call Ventura my home once again.

Hobbies: Growing plants, eating plants, and looking at plants. I also enjoy traveling, hiking, listening to audiobooks, and playing board games.
