What excites you about your residency/fellowship at Corewell Health? The opportunity to learn everything I can about orthopaedics in the amazing culture this program has cultivated. The faculty and residents both have a strong dedication to the furtherance of education and maintaining a sense of camaraderie. While on rotation here as a 4th year medical student I saw how residents would go out of their way to help one another whenever they could. The care the individuals at this program have for each other and the community they serve made me know that this was the place I wanted to be, and I am beyond excited to have the opportunity to be a part of the program.
Clinical interests: I have enjoyed the complexity and variety I have seen in orthopaedic trauma cases along with the joy of healing children in pediatric orthopaedic surgery. I aim to broaden my horizons and gain more experience in all the subspecialties as I continue my learning.
Hobbies: Any and all sports, a day out in the sun is the best! In my free time you can usually find me baking, cooking, reading, or being out in the water. My husband and I both enjoy spending time exploring new restaurants or trying out new recipes ourselves.
