Why Did You Choose the U of M? Minnesota has always been home for me. I wanted to learn from and serve the communities I grew up in, as well as learn how to provide quality care for communities around the globe. I also really wanted to be at a program that supported residents and their families outside of work, which I felt like U of M does exceptionally well.
