Resident Biography
Hometown: West Palm Beach, FL and Springvale, ME
Undergrad Institution: Boston College
Medical School: Albany Medical College
Other degrees/information about them: I was a philosophy and English double major before matriculating to law school. I realized I had no passion for a career in law and left law school during my second semester. I completed the necessary science courses and applied to medical school hoping to find a profession that allowed me to work both with my hands and my intellect in a way that made a tangible difference for others. I am happy to have found that with this surgery program.
Future plans: I have very different surgical interests, transplant surgery and rural general surgery, each of which will influence my future plans differently.
