Resident

Positions & Titles:

  • Resident

Hometown: Dobbs Ferry, NY
Medical School: University of Minnesota Medical School
My medical interests and career direction are: Not sure yet! I'm leaning towards a mix of inpatient and outpatient, and I know I want to work in a specialty that allows for lots of long-term continuity with patients.
My hobbies are: Baking, gardening (mostly growing lots of basil), and running. I am also a little too obsessed with my cat.
My favorite activity in the Twin Cities is: I love to ski the Luminary Loppet every year! I also like walking/biking/running around the lakes and trying out new restaurants.
Why did you choose the UofM Peds Residency Program? I entered the Peds Residency Program through the EPAC program. I love the variety of sites that we work at, the focus on advocacy, and I have met so many passionate educators and mentors here. I also love the Twin Cities!
