Why did you choose UA Sports Medicine?  

I chose UA Sports Medicine for the opportunity to train under a diverse set of sports medicine faculty and work with Division I athletes, as well as for the opportunities of mass event coverage offered. 

What are you most excited about for life in Tucson?  

I am most excited to attend the University of Arizona games and to be involved with the University of Arizona Division I athletics. I am also looking forward to exploring the different hiking trails and mountain views in Arizona.

What are your interests or hobbies outside of Medicine?    

Running, playing pick-up sports, painting with acrylics, crafting, baking, playing board games (especially Catan) and hanging out with friends.

I am very interested in acute musculoskeletal injuries and the musculoskeletal ultrasound. Another interest is simulation medicine which connects to my interest in procedures, teaching, and academic medicine.
