When working as a resident in the ICU, the teamwork and excellent collaboration with the nurses is what ultimately drove me to choose a path in pulmonology and critical care. During my time in the outpatient clinic, I have developed a passion to help meet the needs of all patients from every angle. I have a thrill for teaching which has led me to serve in the internal medicine program. This journey has allowed me to spend a lot of quality time with my family, which is important to me.
