Medical Interests: Opioid Use Disorder/SUDs, Pain Management and Nerve blocks, Mental Health

Why MMC: I did a sub-I here in August and fell in love with the program. Everyone was incredibly nice and worked closely with one another. They gave constructive feedback with specific ways to improve and seemed to genuinely care about my growth in becoming an emergency medicine doctor. They value the importance of having a life outside of work and created an environment that felt incredibly supportive, exactly what I felt I needed in a residency program.
