Personal Statement
Greetings! My name is Adia and I grew up in Rochester, New York and Trumbull, CT. I obtained my B.A. and MPH from Yale University and my MD from the Frank H. Netter, MD School of Medicine. My passion is to dramatically accelerate the pace at which underserved communities gain access to quality healthcare. This passion has been informed by my experiences working with the underserved in CT and overseas. I am excited to be part of a residency program with a strong commitment to the underserved and resources to help support my interests.
I enjoy reading, travel and hanging out with family (especially my niece Aminah!) and friends. I’m excited to be a part of the UNC Family and looking forward to laying down new roots in North Carolina!
