Not only would I receive the nation&#8217;s best education and far exceed my quota to become a top-tier anesthesiologist, but the residents truly seemed to like each other and prioritize hanging out outside of the hospital! I could tell there was a strong community within this program and I wanted to be a part of it.

After my time in the Navy, I aspire to integrate my love of travel, different cultures, and teaching into international medical missions.
