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

During my interview, I learned about how the Pediatric Residents at Sparrow met with the Governor of Michigan (Gov. Whitmer) and changed the MI car seat recommendations to match the recommendations of AAP. I loved it. I knew that Sparrow would be the perfect place for me to make a difference in this world. Also, being from MI, I'm super passionate about giving back and serving my community who helped me get to this point. Lastly, I love that we get to see and treat kids with so many backgrounds at the clinic, so Sparrow was my top choice.

What do you like most about living in Michigan?

Michigan is home, so being close to my family was important. I love everything about living in Michigan (except the potholes).

What do you like most about living in Lansing?

Being so close to the capital. Driving to hospital every morning and seeing the capital building during sunrise is an amazing view.

What are your hobbies?

Zumba/working out/hiking, cooking, watching NBA, spending time with family.

What are your career goals?

I'm keeping an open mind. I love everything about being a pediatrician.
