What I love most about New Orleans?
I love the energy of New Orleans. There is so much to learn, explore and enjoy in this city. I love the outdoor events, beautiful trees/plants/flowers, large parks, live music, outdoor patios, and food culture.
What I love most about Tulane’s Psychiatry Program?
I am so thankful for the people in this program from my co-residents to the faculty and staff I have interacted with. My co-residents are an exceptional group of kind, intelligent, and fun people. All of the residents are welcoming, unique, and encouraging. I have learned so much from the faculty I have worked with and am truly inspired by them. I appreciate the broad experiences we get through this program and the patient populations we have the opportunity to serve.
