Hometown: Sacramento, CA
Bio: I was born and raised in Sacramento, California but I have moved all over for school and training. I am so grateful for the endless support I have received from my family and friends over the years that have allowed me to purse a career in medicine that I absolutely adore. I love the diversity that a career in family medicine provides me and am super excited to start a new adventure as the family medicine obstetrics fellow in South Bend !
Why Memorial: On my interview day and every interaction after, the people have made me feel welcomed and supported which is exactly the type of environment I am looking for in a fellowship program. The robust training was another selling point of course!
