Hobbies, facts, and interests
My family is originally from Ghana but I was born in the Bay Area, CA. I enjoy trying new restaurants and challenging myself to a variety of HIIT workouts. I love spending time with my family and friends as well as traveling when time permits. 

Why Fresno?
Originally from the Bay Area, I was interested in a program that was close to home but with some distance to allow for better focus. The Valley is an area with great medical needs and I am happy to serve in a community helping some of California’s most vulnerable patients. I take pride in aiding to bridge the health disparities gap and feel Fresno is a great place to do so. 

What are your other career interests (specialties/fellowships)?
I am open to various medical fields, but hematology-oncology is a field that I have been passionate about since a young age. I have also recently grown to enjoy GI and other fields. 

What are your research interests?
Barriers to cancer diagnosis and treatment in underserved populations.
