Where did you attend college/university?
Stanford University (undergraduate)

Yale School of Public Health (graduate school)

Where did you attend medical school?
Duke University School of Medicine

What were you looking for in a residency program?
I looked for residency programs with strong training and a sense of community. I am lucky to have found both at Duke, where residents feel supported by faculty as well as by one another.

What are your research and clinical interests at this time?
I am interested in socioeconomic and gender disparities outcomes research, but I am still open-minded about my clinical interests! Looking forward to gaining clarity in the next few years.

Where did you choose to live and why?
I live in a townhome in South Durham, which is only a 10-minute commute. Having lived closer to downtown in medical school, I like the change in atmosphere. It’s also nice living closer to the American Tobacco Trail and other parks.

What do you like to do outside of medicine?
I love spending time outside or being active, especially playing tennis, community gyms, or hanging out with my dog. I also enjoy exploring the food scene in the Triangle and trying new restaurants, coffee shops, and ice cream. Lastly, I love live music and finding nearby concerts with friends.
