Program:  MD

Pathway: Urban Health

Hometown: Loomis, CA 

Major: Biology

About: My general interests include healthcare administration and technology, women's health and reproductive justice, and education. I also did research on honey bees and am full of lots of bee-related fun facts! In my spare time, I love to watch Star Trek and the West Wing while I cook big elaborate meals! In the fall, I will exchange those Netflix reruns for football (Fly Eagles! Fly!). 

Why UMass: My best friend from college applied a year ahead of me, and raved about the friendly culture and early clinical involvement. It was a no-brainer to apply and I immediately fell in love on my interview day with the school, faculty, and students 

Interests: Worcester Free Care Collaborative (WFCC) operations team, EMR training and use in community health organizations, Stop the Bleed (STB) Curriculum Development, Urban Health Pathway, Quality Improvement Committee
