Resident

Biography

Where is your hometown?

Roseville, CA.


Where did you attend medical school?

Pacific Northwest University in Yakima, WA.


Why did you choose the MSU/Sparrow Pediatric Residency Program?

I was a sub-I student in the PICU here during my fourth year. All of the attendings I worked with were very passionate about teaching their specialties, which made me more excited to learn from them. I got the sense that regardless of what my long-term career goals were, the program would support me and ensure that I was prepared for the next steps after residency.


What do you like most about living in Michigan?

This is my first time not living on the West Coast, so I am hoping to take advantage of my new spot and travel to more of the East Coast. I like to camp and I am looking forward to adventuring to the UP since everyone recommends it for the outdoor activities and wine tasting. I can’t wait to compare some Michigan wines to my beloved Washington wines.


What do you like most about living in Lansing?

I like to try new restaurants and since I am new to the area, they are all new to me! Since I am in the middle of the state, I hope that it will make exploring around the state a bit easier. Also, I am close to Chicago where my West Coast friend lives (hi Sara!).


What are your hobbies?

I am currently repainting my entire house, during which time I listen to a fair amount of audiobooks (shout out to Libby). I like to ride my Peloton, but mostly for the Cody classes. Wine tasting became a favorite in medical school. Lastly, I have always liked to cook and bake even though I undoubtedly mess something up every time.


What are your career goals?

What are your career goals? I would like to do a Fellowship. I am currently most interested in PICU and Heme/Onc.
