Title: Resident
Medical School: Kaiser Permanente Bernard J. Tyson School of Medicine
Professional Interests: I probably have more interests than I can pursue in a single lifetime, but some of the aspects of EM I am most excited to explore further are social EM, ultrasound, critical care, street medicine and sports medicine.
Why UCI? I was lucky enough to complete a rotation at the UCI ED during medical school and absolutely loved the environment! The residents, faculty, staff and patients provided me with some of the most engaging clinical experiences I’ve ever had. The camaraderie between residents and faculty created a warm and supportive environment that made learning enjoyable. I appreciated the laughter and sense of community in the ED, which not only made for a better environment but also made shifts feel as though they were flying by. Of course, a good location doesn’t hurt either. Being close to the beach, family and friends offers a lot in terms of activities outside of the hospital.
