PA School: Nova Southeastern University, Orlando

Undergraduate: University of California, San Diego

Hometown: San Francisco Bay Area, CA

Hobbies and Interests: You can find me outdoors exploring hiking trails, running, paddleboarding, kayaking, or rowing. I enjoy diving into new books, learning about rare dog breeds, visiting botanical gardens and plant shops, watching improv comedy, and trying new restaurants.

Why Fresno: I love California. The Central Valley embodies the robust culture offered by the Golden State. The agriculture and national parks attract a wide diversity of people that lends itself to a wide diversity of pathology. UCSF Fresno weaves together community, medicine, and research and I am grateful for the opportunity to train and sharpen my medical acumen with this program.
