Why I chose Kent Hospital:
I chose Brown University/Kent Hospital for my Internal Medicine residency because it offers the opportunity to practice meaningful, patient-centered care in a community that reflects a wide range of backgrounds and lived experiences. I'm passionate about building genuine relationships with my patients- listening without judgment, empowering individuals with knowledge, and working together toward better health outcomes. I strive to honor each person's background and experiences in order to collaborate on realistic and effective plans to help each person I serve reach their health goals.
What are your hobbies and interests:
In my free time I enjoy fawning over my cat, Octavia, reading historical fiction novels, scuba diving, and ballroom dancing. I also try to stay active by participating in Pilates classes or lifting weights at the gym. I am also a fan of Arsenal football club even though supporting them often brings me as much sorrow as it does joy.
