About Me
I was born in Michigan but my heart has always belonged in the mountains! I love spending time in the outdoors, especially rock climbing, backpacking/camping, and gardening. I also love reading (mostly fiction), movies (esp. Wes Anderson movies), and traveling with my best friend and wife, Vija.
Why UW Pediatrics/Seattle Children’s?
This program stood out to me for many reasons, but to summarize in a brief sentence: an incredibly passionate group of people who are committed to improving the health of children with a strong emphasis on health equity and injustices, all while valuing the importance of enjoying life outside of medicine.
Why Seattle?
There’s just something in the air out here. We’re surrounded by stunning mountains and shores with endless opportunities for fun and exploration, the smell of evergreens and the beauty of lush forest is around every corner, and the city is full of vibrant neighborhoods with countless options for amazing food.
Interests
Youth mentorship/outreach, medical education, PICU
I’d love to talk to you about:
Truly any question! Happy to talk about opportunities at this program for future career planning, research, schedules, moving to Seattle, having a partner not in medicine. I’d love to answer any question you have that would help you get a better feel for this program and the people here.
