    About Me

    Professional Interests: Pediatric emergency medicine, medical education and multimedia design education technology. I hope to become an EM educator in Southern California.

    Why UCI? Growing up in OC, countless family and friends in my community have been treated at UCI, and now many friends work there across various allied health services. I spent five gap years before medical school working at Hoag Newport Emergency Department, jealous of the traumas going to UCI. UCI was my number one choice because of its strong relationship with the community I come from, consistent high reputation among medical providers I worked with as an EMT and expanded academic opportunities to help me become not just a physician but an educational resource for my home region.
