About: I graduated from UMass Amherst in 2017 and took two gap years working at MGH in the Anesthesia department before starting at UMass Chan. I’m a rising 2nd year who loves the outdoors, whether that be reading my book in a hammock or skiing. Catch me in my kayak on lake Quinsigamond!
Why UMass: I immediately felt how welcoming the community was. It’s a medical school where you really feel pushed to do your best but also supported every step of the way. They have great mentorship and great students that really make for a very collaborative environment. It was quickly apparent that I’d find students like me here, those that took their studies seriously and wanted to be involved outside of academics but who also wanted to be active and have fun when they could!
Interests: Anything outdoors really.. including skiing, rock climbing, camping, kayaking, lawn games. I also love reading, videogames, and exploring new breweries.
