Why did you choose Valley Children’s Pediatric Residency? 
I was amazed at how much faculty cared for the residents' well-being and how tight-knit the residents were with one another. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming!

Hobbies:
Cooking, baking, and trying out new places to eat, board/video games, dog-friendly activities, spending time with family and friends.

Advocacy and Research Interests and Accomplishments: 
Research has always been important to me, as it is how we advance the medical field. I have been involved in research since my undergraduate years and have continued research throughout my medical school years. As such, I have four publications with other studies in the manuscript review process.

Care Philosophy:
I believe quality care involves the cooperation between physicians and patients. As a physician, I am aware that there are many cultural, religious, and other influences that may affect how patients and their families move forward with a care plan. I aim to advise them to the best of my abilities and vow to respect and honor these differences in order to provide the best care that I can.
