Contact Information:

Hometown: San Antonio, TX
College: University of Texas at Dallas
Medical School: University of Texas Medical Branch John Sealy School of Medicine
Fellowship Plans: Forensic Pathology!!
Career Goals: My plan is to become a Medical Examiner while still maintaining an affiliation with an academic institution so I can teach and work with residents and medical students!
Hobbies and Interests: I love eating and love trying out new restaurants, coffee, and boba shops. I enjoy weightlifting and doing outdoorsy things like hiking and paddle boarding, but also enjoy chilling at home and tending to my plants with a good podcast, reality TV show, or anime playing.  
Why Duke: Something that I really love about Duke is how both residents and faculty are so friendly and open. Everyone is genuinely excited to be where they're at. When applying for residency, I could really see myself getting along with and finding support in everyone I would be working with. Duke has both strong AP and CP training too, which is important to me so that I can get the most well-rounded education possible!

Why Durham: Having lived all around Texas for most of my life, I've enjoyed how green everything is in Durham! There are trees everywhere, and I love experiencing all the seasons we don't typically get in Texas. Durham has a fun with so much to do and explore. I also love getting to make quick trips to the nearby coast or mountains!
