Bio

Why I chose Family Medicine: I chose family medicine because it embodies the impact I want to have as a physician as caring for the whole person, building lasting relationships, and being present in the moments that matter most. I have seen how compassion, continuity, and prevention can transform lives, not only by treating illness but by empowering patients and communities. I am especially committed to serving underserved populations and addressing the root causes of health disparities. Family Medicine is more than a specialty to me; it is a lifelong commitment to service, advocacy, and meaningful human connection. Why I chose the IU Arnett Family Medicine Residency Program: The IU Arnett Family Medicine Residency Program inspires me with its collaborative culture and commitment to patient-centered care. I am drawn to its focus on serving diverse and underserved communities, where I can make a real impact. The teamwork, mentorship, and supportive environment align perfectly with my goal of becoming a compassionate physician who leads, advocates, and leaves a lasting difference in patient’s lives. Personal interests and hobbies: I love to play piano and guitar. Watch Star Wars, Game of Thrones, Harry Potter and Japanese Anime. I love to watch all sport especially NFL Games and Soccer.
