What do you enjoy most about being a medical student at the Whiddon College of Medicine?
I enjoy that I get to work toward my goal of becoming a physician every day, and I get to do it with people I respect and look forward to working alongside one day. The faculty make each of us feel like a priority and openly portray their love for medicine in a way that inspires me daily. 

Are you involved in any research, organizations or other initiatives at the Whiddon College of Medicine?
I participated in the Summer Research Program last summer. I worked with Dr. Nathan Polite, one of the trauma surgeons at University Hospital, studying risks of aspiration with enteral feeding in the trauma patient population. I'm a part of the PEERS program, and last year I was a part of the Social Media Committee. I'm a member of the Emergency Medicine Interest Group and OB-GYN Interest Group. 

What are your interests and hobbies?
I love going on walks, traveling, and spending time with friends and family. 

What is something unique about you?
I could sleep 12-plus hours a night if I never set an alarm.
