What drew you to UNC?

I had the great opportunity to have an away rotation with UNC Anesthesia as a medical student. Everyone in the anesthesia department from the residents to leadership was extremely nice and welcoming; I felt like a valued piece of the team every day. I am also from the mountains of NC, so I wanted to stay and serve the people of North Carolina. UNC, as a whole, does that better and more inclusively than any hospital system in the state.

What has been your favorite rotation thus far?

Through intern year, my favorite by far has been rotating in the Surgical ICU! Managing the patients felt similar to anesthesia, and it was fun working with surgical and anesthesia colleagues!

What is your favorite memory with co-residents?

Before we all started intern year, we rented a pontoon boat and had a fun day on Jordan Lake getting to know each other!
