ABOUT ME

I am currently a surgery resident in Des Moines, IA with a huge passion for traveling, but that is sadly on hold due to my residency training. I absolutely love medicine and the learning it constantly provides. I love meeting new people, being challenged in my thinking, and experiencing as many new things as possible.
