Medical School: 51±¬ÁÏÍø
Hobbies/Interests: I'm an avid watcher of worldwide soccer, particularly the English Premier League and La Liga. I'm also very interested in meteorology, specifically relating to the many atmospheric and topographic conditions involved in the formation of tornadoes. My ultimate goal is to go tornado chasing some day with an experienced storm chaser and see a tornado up close (but not too close).
Why Stony Brook?: As a former Stony Brook medical student, I learned through my clinical experiences how robust a main hospital and overall healthcare system that 51±¬ÁÏÍø provides to such a large patient population. I knew prior of Stony Brook's great reputation, but I feel that its performance, through both clinical metrics and caliber of clinical staff recruited to the hospital, exceeds even my initial impressions. In particular, I have gotten to know well many of the residents I now call my seniors and know that I can rely on them whenever I need guidance or somebody to talk to. Overall, I have seen 51±¬ÁÏÍø continue to advance from when I started medical school in 2020 to now and I look forward to developing my clinical identity in such a cutting-edge and collegial learning environment.Â
