Bio

Why I chose Family Medicine: From the start of my journey, family medicine impressed me with how closely physicians can connect with their patients and communities. It offers the opportunity to build trustworthy relationships and make a tangible difference in people’s lives, particularly through prevention, screening, and health education. Being able to see the direct impact of one’s work on patients and the broader community is what makes this specialty so meaningful to me. Why I chose the IU Family Medicine Residency Program: For its strong emphasis on preventive and community medicine aligns perfectly with my career goals, and I am eager to further develop this area of my practice. I am excited to begin this new chapter, confident that I will be supported by an inspiring and collaborative team, as I experienced during the interview process and program events.  Interests and Hobbies: I enjoy photography and video editing, as well as traveling and exploring different cultures.
