About Me

I grew up moving all over the country for my parent’s job in the Air Force and have lived in 7 different states now! I spent high school and college in California where I developed a love of the ocean and camping. I worked in San Francisco in a biotechnology startup after college, and then attended medical school on the East Coast. I am so excited to be back on the West Coast and in a place where nature is so accessible and people are down-to-earth.

Why UW Pediatrics/Seattle Children’s?

I wanted to be a place that provided me with a few different things – access to all of the subspecialties (I am undecided in my career choice), the opportunity to learn with and from a diverse group of people, the ability to reach nature quickly/easily in my time off, a short commute, and being close to family.

Why Seattle?

I love that it is surrounded by water and mountains! I love the variety of food options here and all of the boba and coffee places to try!

Interests
